what in your experience is the best everyday tire that is also good for performance?

 

I have Kumho Ecsta ASX tires on my Camaro. They're 255/45/16 I think (I'm about three thousand miles away from my car right now so I can't exactly check). I like them, but I also don't have much experience because those are the only tires I've had on it so far.

 

Nitto 555R's.

 

I like Nitto and Toyo. Right now I have Falken ZE 512's on. Personally I will never get Falkens again. Sure they have the same treadwear rating, and similar tread design, but they are made of different compounds. Falkens have stiff sidewalls, which may be good for lasting longer, but wont be good for any form of performance or safety. If you go with Nitto or Toyo (Proxes) you get tires with a softer sidewall which may not lastas long, but will deliver performance safety, and comfort.

 

I used to have a set of proxes and i can say i loved them. I switched to the nittos and i can say they do seam to bite a little better.

 

I just bought some toyo proxes 4......I love them and are both good for driving to work and turning corners like an *******

 

O yea and for the toyo tires......245/50/16......ran me 160$ per tire

 

I had goodyear 225s on for the first 4 months I had the car and I just got some sick looking Cooper Zeon 2XS 245s for X-mas. I love how mean they make my car look and the handling is phenomial. It almost steers itself through the turns
