    Anyone try this tire?

    It is really cheap, but the tirerack user rating on it is really good.

    Duke, only way to go is Federal SS-595.

    or Federal Runway-916. those 2 are 2 of the cheapest most used tire in the 240 world. at least on nico..

    If you're going to do any kind of street driving.. I suggest you get something worthwhile.

    Don't get no shitty tires for street/daily driving.
    Get something quality for street.

    Get something shitty for drift.

    Get something quality for drift, if you're rich.

    245/45 ZR17 is $93 each

    General UHP is $87 each

    Kumho SPT is $97 each

    I am running spts at the moment and I really like that tire, but it is the difference between a $420 tire bill and a $344 tire bill.

    I know 1 person that has these tires and he said they are stick OK, but they last forever he said. He said he rode on 1 set of them for about 20,000.

    The kumhos that I am rolling on now are lasting quite well. I have about 5,000 on them now and they still have ~2\3 tread left, and that is after 2 autox events and me raping them on a daily basis on back roads.

    595 is rated 3 in the top tires for drifting circuit in Japan, and everyone ive talked to on nico about them said they are awesome on the street. even YokotaS13 repps em.. and hes hard to please when it comes to tires/wheels.

    Umm...
    Drift =/= street

    You have to take into account in street driving, you experience FAR different conditions than from drifting.


    If you grip, you're looking for the WRONG tires.
