The Tire Rack & Discount are showing Dunlop SP5000s for $116 in that size. I just got them...

 

actually, i was looking for either Nittos or maybe some Yokohamas..

anywayz...that's my fault. i should have said that in my earlier post.

thanks for your info KahunaCanuck.

-peace.

 

I got bridgestone RE-730 @ $137 from tirerack. Nitto are about the same price but they make a lot of road noise and don't grip as well. RE-730 is the best tire in this price range. then U move up to the yoko and BF GTA and others.

 

hey, Dennis...
how much did you say you paid for your Yokohamas?

-peace

Hey man I'm getting ready to replace my Bridgestone Potenzas with the Nitto 555 Extremes for $143/tire. I've heard really good things about these tires (i.e. grip well, Z rated, good wet weather traction, & they look great) Try calling discount tires at 1-800-808-4737 for a price quote and nearest location. Later.

 

what do u guys think about Pirelli P7000 SS?
in like a 225/45/17 size? can i fit 235 on my stock rims?
lemme know

 

if price is not an issue...what type should i get? i will eventually replace the rims, but that is not for awhile down the road...i was thinking about toyo proxies t1-s or nitto nt555...i will be putting on 235/45ZR17's on the stock 17" rims...can anyone give me some help...i want tires that will grip well on dry pavement and in the water and i want z rated tires...

my friend w/ a 98 mustang gt 5spd just put nittos on his stock 17" rims and he said it feels like he's driving an entirely new car...this is what i want...the potenzas suck as far as grip goes and i need something much grippier

the plus side to the potenzas is that i have learned how to drift...its a lot of fun if you haven't tried it...the best is on a merge lane right turn while going about 60-80...f*cking fun...but of course i worked my way up from lower speeds and learned the car before i brought it up that high...and of course i check for traffic

alright, so tell me what the grippiest tires are that i can get...there are so many brands out there and i just want some feedback...i am looking for cornering ability...i hate the potenzas but don't have $3k to spend on new rims+tires right now

 

I have 235/45/ZR17 Pirelli P7000 SS, and they are Great. I got them from Tire Rack for 120. Awesome rain performance. Great traction. Good wear resistance. I'd Get the Pirelli's if I were you.

 

cool is that on stock rims or do u have aftermarket ones? if its aftermarket how wide are ur rims? also how is the grip during the day? would u recomend these tires if i get snow every once in a while... (today theres about a inch of snow on the road but it all melted ) im in nyc btw...
i like the p7000ss i heard they are a helluva tire

 

we've had a numerous discussions about this before.
but since your stock 17s are only 7" wide....you can't fit 235s on your stock rims...sorry~~

-peace

 

i hope they make them in 225 then...

 

ANY SPECIALS FOR THE T1'S I NEED TO KNOW(P 235 45 R 17)

 

Can you put 225/45 on the stock rims?

Also if you want to put 235s, what size rim should i buy?

 

Hey, check out tires.com (American Tire). They have locations all over SoCal. I got my Nitto 555's there, and their prices were pretty good. I found them to be extremely helpful. I got free standard roadhazard (the prorated kind), free tire repair, and free tire rotations. My car pulled a little after I got them, and he determined one of the tires was defective. After he isolated it, he got me a new tire and replaced it -- didn't give me any $hit about it.

The one I went to was on Torrance Blvd in the South Bay, but there's probably a location closer to you in OC. Or you can have the wheels delivered to your house if you wanted to do the install yourself. I'm really happy with them.
