    Well the tire being talked about right now is the Kumho Ecsta Supra 712..if you hadnt figured that out. You can get a set mounted for about $500. I was going to get some of these..but have decided to go with the Falken Ziex 502's. 245/50/16's. The reason is because of longer tread life. My friend has some on his 95Z and they look pretty tight.check them out here go to "tire catalog" , then "Ziex Ultra low profile".

    Sears quoted me at around $475 mounted.

      Longer treadlife = poorer rain traction and offtheline traction.

      I recommend Dunlop Sp5000s, they grip to no end and aren't terribly out of range in price.

        Yeah I know. But I'm on a budget and I want my tires to last. The falkens have alittle more treadlife rating than the Kumhos. Ive tried them on my car and they have good traction for what I need. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]
