tires

[marcin]

I was wandering what tires you guys have on your machine.

I had a flat tire last week, and had to replace it. Since, I couldn`t get the same one in used condition. I`ve decided to go with 2 different ones. But that`s only temporary solution.

I`m thinking of getting a set of Firehawk Indy 500
when I get a good deal.

Anyway let me know if you guys using stock 215s or bigger ones. Personally, I prefer 245s

You should probably run a P245/50 or P255/50 all the way around on stock 16x8s.

Most of us are very happy with that setup.

Sorry about the blowout, if you want go ahead and replace all 4. I know Kumho 711s are only $60/tire in P245/50 and people seem to like them.

Yup...What Dom said...I just purchased 245/50/16 Kumho's for a friend and she is very happy with them. 56.00 each plus shipping which I think was 32.00 for all 4 and I had them within 2 days.

Thnx for the info


I just read a review on Tirerack.com, although they have good reviews, some people agree they are not as good in wet or snow conditions.

Since, I live in Canada(this year the weather is really unpredictable) sometimes I need to drive in snow.

Or should I just look for a winter tires and go with the Kumho since they are reasonably priced.

I've got BFG KDWS, they're all season. Good in rain & snow. Certainly not aggressive tread, but they got me home in 5+ inches of snow last winter. However, they didn't come cheap.
