Which tires are you running?
03 Gs300 here,
Rim size is at:
9.5 X 19 fronts
11 X 19 Rear
Past/Current tires:
225/245/35/19 Federal 595s
currently on the same size but running Acceleras
Im looking to purchase some new tires, but not trying to drop $700 plus on rubber....just registered three cars and cost me $533 So I'm on a budget, and definitely need new tires asap.
Whats a decent tire that i can get thats better than what i have?
I searched around but couldn't find comparisons on here. But i did read on google about some Falken 452 someone recommended, or possibly the Kumho SPT. But I'm all ears to some suggestions. Im really indecisive but i definitely want more grip to rip around some twisties. getting some new coil overs and dizen bushings installed soon, so i want tires that will keep up. I am stretched as well, so that is a factor.

Nankang NS-II or the Nankang NS-20's have yet to let me down. As far as pricing goes, check discountedwheelwarehouse.com, tires-easy.com and onlinetires.com to compare prices. theyve always got solid deals on a variety of tires/sizes.

I wanted Hankook ventus II's but I got the sumitomos htrzIII. 255 in back, 225 in the front. They are good I auppose. Can't complain. I have had quieter tires and stickier tires, but none at the steal I bought these for

I had a couple Nankang's on my 350z but only up front. i didn't like the rim guard, only because i was stretched, but i will look into these places. thanks!

I run Hankook Ventus V12 on my Varrstoens, good tires good grip & high treadwear so they last forever.
I just picked up a set of Enkeis and buying a set of Federal 595 RSR's for maximum grip.

They do offer great grip, soft, and are quiet. also, the sidewall seem a bit too soft for me. Can causes bending in rims.

Delinte D7 or whatever their model is
215/40/18
18x8.5 Carlsson 1/5
online tires was out of Achilles ATR so I took a chance on these Delintes. No complaints, they did what I needed them to. Gave a little stretch, got me the clearance I needed and they wore fine . Its been almost a year with camber at 4 deg. About time to flip them. I'm about as hard on my tires as I am on my under carriage that being said these have lasted quite a while. Yae for el cheapos!!!
