Tire Imbroglio

ok well looks like i wont have enough saved to get some fno1rc's

basically iam just going to buy a NEW set of tires for my SE wheels... it is so funny because i have never bought a BRAND new tire... i basically have been buying tires for very cheap at random junkyards...

so basically i just wanted to see what is a good and fairly cheap tire that handles awesome, with somewhat a good treadwear since they will be my daily driven tires...

i do alot of high speed runs on the mini fake touge we have here...

so basically nothing over $45... good dry and wet traction, good cornering for what its worth and good tread wear

Yeah, I've got a set of Kumho Ecstas. I don't do any racing or autocross but I do love to drive and corner and whatnot. They were real budget-tastic and I think they work pretty damn well. You may want to check them out.

Best wishes,
Matt
