Post by cptnsolo77 »

Ok tire gurus, what would be a better choice?http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...1=yes- ... /...1=yesI live in south FL so I dont have to worry about snow, but we do have our rainy seasons. Any feedback would be great.

seeing how the first one has "Fewer than 2", the second would be your choice lol. Plus the second one has a mean looking tread and has a higher tread life. But I don't really know much about tires though so take my words with a grain of salt.

Car and Driver just did a test - if snow/freezing temps are not a concern, Hankook was the best value - near the top in both dry and wet and near the cheaper end on price.http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...+K110I'm running Hankook's on my Civic right now and love them. They are just as sticky and wear even better than my previous Kumho SPTs.

I'd much rather see you on the Hankooks above or the SPT... http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...a+SPTYou don't need an A/S tire, so why run one?

I had the ASX on my Matrix for a few miles. Good tire, not great, just good. My current General Exclaims are doing 1000x better. The wear on the ASX is too fast and the tire likes to give fairly quickly. My General tire has been flawless and given me plenty of feedback when needed. I have a good 30-40k on them and they are still showing little wear.

Opinions are like A-Holes... everyone has one.....I have the ASX's and I've been happy with them, but they are a cheaper tire so I'm willing to sacrafice a little for the cheaper tire. I got a set of 4 for my 17's for $240 shipped.
