I need to get a set of tires for si rims. What's some good cheap tires to get?

 

I got kuhmo 712's from discount tire for $108 a peice, 205/45/16

 

I got a set of Falken Ziex 512's sized 205/50/15's for 67/tire. But I'm sure that ferio's price of 108/tire includes mount and balance... even if they are 16's...

 

Kumho 711's in 205/50/15 from tirerack for $50 a tire shipped

 

i got 195/50/15 for $85 a piece at tire rack. but that was when they had a special, dont know if its still that price.

 

from what im hearing the best bang for your buck is the falken azenis but i think they usually only last about 8 months or so. How aggressive is your driving, do you plan to drag or auto cross or just daily driven. what rating do u like H or V or Z

 

my friend recently order sumotimo tires 205-50-15 for 43 bukks a tire from tirerack.com, and i gotta say, these grip really well in the rain and has excellent traction on the dry. i recommend these also.

it's going to be for mainly daily driving and winter wheels. No drags, or racing

 

if thats the case just get some cheap tires and get the h rating

 

If you need them for winter driving as well, skip on the Khumo 712's and Falken Azenis. Search at Tirerack for an all-season tire. If your budget can fit them, Dunlop SP5000's are an excellent all-season tire as well as the SP Sport A2's (both in size 205/50/15). But they are very expensive at $90+ a tire.

Personally, I'd get a summer only set of tires for less money like the Azenis or Khumo's and find a set of steelies for $100 or so to ride on during the winter....:thumbup:
