tire choice!

[official_style]

with my rims i ordered dunlop 9000s, 255/45/18, 285/40/18. would i be better off with bfgoodrich g-force T/A KDW2s instead? i just saw them, and i like how they look.

I was thinking about the same tire. They have a good rating in almost every category and they look very nice. I would go with those.

Which one?

I went in and talked to my tire slanger dood, and he said go with the dunlops, the sidewalls are stiffer, less likely to bend a rim on a pothole, and better in rain. The bf goodrich just have that cool look.

I'm going with 255/45/18 in the front, 285/40/18 in the back as well. The BF Goodriches and Zenetti Five's 18 x 8.5 in the front, 18 x 9.5 in the back. Can't Wait!!

I'm going with Nitto 555 Extremes - 255/45/18. Good price, good performance and looks.

If you don’t mind my asking, what did you pay for the Zenettis? I am looking at these as well.

Thanks

$265 each for the 18 x 8.5
$290 each for the 18 x 9.5

I am a Dunlop fan, but this time I went with Falken FK451, 255/45r18 on American Racing Casino rims. they look great but I am having a vobration in my steering wheel at 55mph and in my seat at 80 mph. They have done countless balances and it works for a few days then the vibration, or tremor, comes back.

I think it may be the Falkens.

They are very good as far as wet traction and dry traction, a little noisy at 40mph but then it goes away. I think I may have a bad batch of tires...the dealer says the Eibach Pro kit is to blame. i don't think so.

again i am a tire dealer the bfg kdws is their all season tire excellent in wet weather now you may be talking about the kdw that has an almost flame like design those will be on my car tommorow and will be my second set awesome ride still good traction i would pick either over the dunlop

ok guyd put the bfgs on yesterday 20" 265-35-20 ride awesome just my two cents

Since this car is a retro model, I deceided to stay with that theme concerning the tires as well. I did, however, want a tire with a beefier look than the Pirelli's and chose the Fuzion ZRi 255/50/17 to go with the Bullitt wheels. You can check them out on page 3 and 4 in my gallery.
