hey guys im looking for some info on a few tires. i cant choose witch tires i wanna go with and need to know what size tires would fit.

M/t street rad's NEW

bf goodrich drag rad g- force t/a or the comp 2

nitto 555r

yokohama advan Ao48



im realy liking the g force t/a because i was told you really dont have to eat them up to get them to grip as the nitto you must.

also i 16'' wheels i was looking for 225/50/16 but ive seen most of them only carry 255/50/16 (not sure if these will fit).


if anyone has any info on these that would be great. these will be driven on the street also. thanks jim
 
Ah yes the wicked east witch brand or the wicked witch west brand....


Nitto/Yoko vs BFG/MT streets.

Drag radials are for drag racing.....if you want tires that will last more than a few thousand miles, avoid them.

well i know there for drag racing.


please only info about the tires

i dont need to know what im doing because i know what im doing. thanks guys jim
 
well I have no experience with them on my eclipse but back when I had my 99 z28 I ran a set of BFG and a set of Nitto's. Me personally I liked the nittos the best they would hook great on the street. raised my launch rpm about 1500 and no more first gear spin from a roll.

and I ran them all the time on factory rims, If you race me there is no "let me change tires" BS, run what you have because I'm ready.

yeah they dont last as long but If that is what you are worried about you dont need a car that will perform anyway.
