Dada Neutral Newbie June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 Hi bros, juz want to find out more abt tyres in the market right now. There are many brands from yokohama ES100, Falken Azenis, Michelin MXV8 to Bridgestone GR80 tyres. Which are the ones that are performance tyres and which are the ones that people use for the comfort and wet grip abilities? Have u guys heard of BF goodrich tyres? I'm looking for a performance tyre that will not burst my pocket and will be good for wet and dry roads. Coz I do a lot of drifting... juz kidding. Ok there are many brands but which is highly recommended in terms of price and performance. My live lies in the tyres that move my car. Thanks! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mzrmazda3 6th Gear June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 Hi Bro You can browse through this website 'www.tirerack.com' for all the tyres available and take your pick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrari7 Neutral Newbie June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 What kind of performance? Dry/wet . . . braking/cornering? As a rule of thumb, Bridgestone Potenzas are performance biased, whereas their Turanza series are comfort based. Gr-80 is the best performing Turanza . . . its silent, silent, silent . . . even when worn. But sidewalls are soft and can't take hard cornering well. Wet traction is good, but aquaplanning wise I aint too sure. . . Azenis looks nice and I believe they outperform the Gr-80s in terms of cornering grip. Noise wise is a no-no. Likewise for ES100, which are notoriously noisy. BFGoodrich is a sister company of Michellin. MXV8? . . . hmmm . . . No comments. I think if you want peace of mind and great value for money, get Thai-made Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3. Hard to go wrong with that. . . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contax 1st Gear June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 Performance tyres with good grip both in dry & wet ? It gotta be Eagle F1 GSD3 .Not too expensive (15'' abt <$100) and value for money. BF Goodridge G-force sport - capable performer . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy a performance tire will be a performance tire when it's installed on a performance car Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elantrahatch Neutral Newbie June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 Am on BF Goodrich G Force Sport. Ok for budget performance.. however, yesterday i full throttled the car from stationary. The rpm of my car went up to 4000 but the car didn't move. I think is cannot grip then suddenly launched forward. Btw, the road was wet. Location at Laguna Country Club.

Elfenstar 3rd Gear June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 did u hear any noise that wasnt from the engine or feel any light vibrations when the car was reving but with no traction??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky Neutral Newbie June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 How's the Goodrich G Force Sport in term of noise level? I'm considering this tire too. But worried about the noise level. I'm using Falken ZE326 now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soya Supersonic June 9, 2006 Share June 9, 2006 frankly, any tyre is quieter than the ZE326. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
