I WANT TO KNOW WHICH TIRE IS BEST FOR SUMMER STREET ONLY! I DONT WANT EVERY1's WHOLE TIRE STORY AND ALL THE HORSEPOOP! KEEP IT SIMPLE FOR STREET PERFORMACE ONLY, MONEY AINT A PROBLEM! JUST TYPE THE TIRE U PREFER


AND BY THE WAY, STI DRIVERS ONLY!

I vote for:

1) doesn't matter, so go with the one that'll make you think you're faster; you're only using them for the street and the performance differences between any of the summer-only tires is going to be so slight you're unlikely to notice the difference.

2) YOU'RE SHOUTING, and that ain't polite.

3) if $ no issue and only for summer, then get the g-Force T/A KD or Pilot Sport PS2. Or if $ truly doesn't matter, then get an R and really show the world what you've got: Dunlop SP Super Sport Race, Kumho ECSTA V700/VictoRacer V700, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup, etc.

and

4) Survey says... (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/surveydisplay.jsp?type=MP)

Be nice or you may not get anyone to tell you ****.

I will watch this...

Hey KLOPOT, ****.

there I just told him.

Oh wait what tire? um Get the MXs they get better when they get hotter the Azenis get greasy. You might try to cram 245/40R17s on your stock rims. If the size has to be 225/45R17 I would probably take the stock RE070s as the performance dif is negligable then and the RE070 was designed for the Subaru.

Advan A038R /Advan A032R / ......

I drove both MX and I am on 070 now (haven't driven Azenis)

So, 070 advantages/ MX disadvantages:

070 are grippier, more responsive, less prone to tramlining (but still will follow grooves)

MX advantages/ 070 disadvantages:

last longer, cost less, quieter, better grip in wet coditions (but not by much).

Personally, I would buy neither; after 070 are worn my next set will be Toyo T1-S or T1-R.

PS yes, please don't limit your request to STi drivers - it is both rude (you could've asked instead that you especially want to hear opinion of STi-er) and not smart (there is a good chance that some non-STi drivers might've driven all three tires...)

Be nice or you may not get anyone to tell you ****.
Seriously... "STI DRIVERS ONLY!" ? You think STi people are the only ones that know about tires? Kindly remove your crainial extremity from your anal cavity....

Honestly I think some Federals would suit you well....

:rolleyes:

I hear the Nankang tires that you get from Wheelmax are the best tire available.

Bridgestone Fuzion. From BigRock intheMiddleoftheRoad Performance. They also do exhaust systems.

This thread went downhill. :lol:

buy all three and extra rims in ever different colour so you can change them to suit your decor.

Bigrockinthemiddleoftheroad Performance is where I got my Tires. They are the absolute SICKEST summer tires ever. Bigrockinthemiddleoftheroad hooked me up too, what a good deal.
I'd tell this guy all about it, but I only drive a PoS WRX, so what do I know?

The funny part is that he only drives a POS wrx as well.

i hate you die.

My personal experience:

Kumho MX
- more comfortable
- wear better with agressive alignment for street use
- good grip
- some tramlining

Falken Azenis Sport
- noisy & harsh
- don't wear as well with agressive camber when used on the street
- best grip
- more tramlining

RE 070
- no idea, haven't tried them, I'd think they'd be more like an Azenis than the MX

It's up to you which is more important, better road manners for a little less grip, or top notch grip with less road manners

Personally I like them BF Goodrich Mud Terrain for all season handling. Great on gravel roads for some drifting fun.
