Need some new tires... ANyone have suggestions?

i take it from your comments, youre lookin for a DR in the rear of some sort. Nitto and BFG both make some darn good stuff. not sure about you finding exactly what you want with a 15 x 7 wheel tho.....maybe.

theres just so many options: speed ratings, handling, treadwear, summer tire, all seasons, stock size, not stock....

if you're lookin for a stock replacement tire with all-season performance, heres one by Yokohama with a 320 treadwear and a pretty tough tread pattern.

i have sumitomos on my 95 in a 275 / 40 / 17. the treadwear is awesome and the ride is great and quiet. but you sacrifice some handling. car wants to "roll" a little. but for the $$, i like them.

as for your BFGs: heres 2 DRs to choose from-

the BFG G force T/A DR 2 : it comes in a slightly wider 235 / 60 / 15 for $129

or

the BFG G force T/A DR : it comes in the factory width but a little shorter sidewall with a 225 / 50 / 15 at a $114

for fronts if you went with BFG, several choices :

BFG Traction T/A traction H & V : heres one thats not too pricey in a 225 / 60 / 15 for $70

im not sure i helped. all this is assuming that you want to stick close to the stock size?

good luck

What kind of mileage are you looking to get out of a drag radial? From experience: Between the 2 drag radials you mentioned the Nitto will get far better mileage. However, the BFG is gonna hook a heck of a lot better. For the street I am currnetly running Falken Ziex ZE512 225/50/16 up front and Nitto Drag Radial 555R 245/50/16 out back. Here are some people I have dealt with http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/home.do

If you are looking for a street tire I am very pleased with my BFG KDW... I havn't put much mileage on them yet but the handling is great.
