What kind of tires does eveyone have? How do you like them? What does the tread pattern look like?

The tires I got are by (a Korean brand?) Wanli. They are great tires, and the tread pattern is unlike anything I have ever seen before. They grip very well when it is dry... different story when its wet though... All in all, they are great. I love the tread pattern. :D

I got a set of Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's. Great wet and dry traction, especially for the price.

Heres the turn was going 70 on a 35 or 25 and a Integra took the inside corner forcing me to the right and I lost it,(tires are worn and truck seems to have reacted shity)

I got teh michelin rated x's .. 175/70/13 ... I think my bridgestone potenzas handled better. Kuhmos are pretty good, most of my buddies with bigger rims run either those or yokohama paradas.

on my 91 I have a set of 205/40/17 AVON ZZ1, they are very nice. Good wet or dry traction, not good for snow. they are a bit noisy on the road.

on my 92 I have a set of 205/40/17 Sumitomo HTRZ II. great tyre. I like these better than the AVON's they are much quiter. excellent wet or dry traction, no good for snow.

good ol' stock size goodyear integrity 175/70-13. supposed to be 30000 mile tires, i went through the front set in 7000 miles... for the money i think they are the best stock size tire out there. when i get 17s (on my hatch if i can ever find a 90 or 91 si for sale) i'll be running either potenzas, ecstas, or paradas.

I have stock steelies too..I have Yokohama Avid T-4 Performance Radials in 175/70/13 size. I used to be a Michelin tire person (MX-4's) but they got to be too expensive ($74 each). The Yoko's are $35 at TireRack :eek: and the best stock sized tire I've used..now granted they aren't a true low-profile, big wheel performance tire....but I won't waste money on Michelin's anymore in stock sizes... I already have 10k miles on then and the tread looks brand new.
