Anyone running this Tire & Size?



Wondering if I can get your opinion on their performance?

 

sorry i found this late



i have on my watatnabes (16x7 and 16x8) ... es100 225.50 in front and 245.50 in rear



so my opinion for that size...



also i think theyre the best tires ive ever driven on in my life (street tires that it)

 

I am running 235/40-18 front and 265/35-18 rear. I do a lot of auto-cross. They are excellent tires. The grip is good in wet weather also.

 

One of my friends has 225 45's on the front and 245 45's on the back on S5 turbo wheels. He loves them. Great traction. I just ordered Bridgestone Potenzas though, they were rated higher.

 

i coulnt agree anymore



i do autox every week and theyre awesome



tread is keeping up well too

 

Cool! Thanks for the replies, guys!



I ended up getting ES100's in 225/50-16 all the way around on the stock meshy TII rims.



So far, so good.

 

you shoulda squeezed some larger ones in the rear...oh wellz .. still good

 

Cost was a factor too.



BTW, what are the widest tire you can run on the stock TII wheels? 235? 245?

 

245's fit fine, but I worry about uneven wear. I dont know if its an issue, b/c my friend doenst have that many miles on his tires yet. But I have 225 50 15's on my GTU rims, and the wore SO unevenly. Ill get a pic in a few days when my potenzas/S5 TII rims go on.

 

Stock wheels? Stick with the stock size. The gain in traction is mostly in your head and the turn in isn't as good. Want wider tires? Get wider wheels.
