I have the Avon 550 summer tires from the Tire Rack, they seem to be very good. I wanted the Toyo T1R's but I got tired of them being on back order for so long.

Yeah I knew that would forget some brands, that's why i left the "different brand" option. :)

I roll on one brand of tire only. Falken. the Falken Ziex ZE-512 is by far the best all around tire in my opinion, and i have logged over 500,000 miles on americas road systems. I have held a drivers liscense in 4 states and driven in 37/50. as far as i can tell, for every application, with the exception of heavy loads and pickup trucks used for their purpose, the ZE-512 is the optimum tire for any other application. they are cheap and they usually last alot longer than their competition.

from Nitto themselves:

By utilizing a racing concept design, Nitto Tire's engineers developed the NT-555 "Extreme ZR". With a specially formulated compound and one of the biggest contact patches available, the NT-555 provides superior traction, reliable handling, and delivers total vehicle control. The three-circumferential grooves channel water efficiently, while the lateral grooves break up the water wedge. This combination of grooves and channels reduces the chance of hydroplaning.

Falken Azenis- More grip than I can use, great wet traction, awesome wear, total crap in snow.

Did you do anything with the wheel wells or make any camber adjustments? I went with 275's instead of 285's because I read about rubbing a lot. I haven't lowered yet but am planning on it.

morris
11-27-05, 12:39 PM
nope didnt do a thing they fit fine right out the box. I did have the proper offsets though as specified by Iforged. I'm pretty sure that if your offsets arent right that rubbing covuld be an issue.

I got Falken 451's for my Euro LS430. They are a $100 a tire cheaper than the tires my car came with and much better ride, more quiet and great in the rain.

I used Nitto 555's before, its a great tire for the money. :thumbup:

However, I switched to Yokohama AVS DB's because they seem to be quieter, other then that, everything is pretty much equal. :)

Bridgestone Blizzark WS-60 on 1998 GS400 OEM 17" chrome
