Hey Folks! How´s everyone?

 

I am Planning to buy 2 rear tires on my z, actually I have 2 Yokohama Advan sport but they need to be changed..Yokohama is kind a´expensive and I think the drive is not as good, despite this..I am fitting a 255/40 RZ17 94Y and that size is not available on Yokohama.So the question is... what tires you would strongly Recommend me that goes Good with the Z?

 

I checked on http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tire-brand.jsp and each tire has a good and bad score..some people tell me that Falken is very good..some other´s tell me that I should go for some Dunlop..so now I am somehow confused..so as always 300ZX UK Forum is the most experienced on these matters..can I get some suggestions?

Happy Weekend!!

I have Michelin Pilot Sport 255.40.17 on the rear of my car and find good traction and good for road noise

I use toyo proxes t1-R and i cant get enough of them, no slip, and look brill, i use a local place http://www.ears.co.uk

 

255/40ZR17 98Y Toyo Proxes T1-R

255/40ZR17 98Y Toyo Proxes T1-R

 

 

Price: £95.99 £112.79 Including VAT at 17.5%

Falkens for me, however i would of thought if you can afford better ones then you should :) I bought the falkens as they get good reviews as an intermediate tyre at a good price, and i can tell you they are very good and i have'nt had any problems what-so-ever.

 

HTH :)

yep as above here too...fantastic rubber wet or dry:)

DONT buy Avon ZR's series, they are absolutely rubbish on anything but absolutely dry conditions, and they wear quickly, like 3000 miles and illegal. I was shocked when my son dived under the car one day and then pronounced that my back tyres were almost bald, and then I was pleased because I could replace them with something better, Dunlop Sport, superb. (285x18x35)

Ye funny init,most budget tyres are better than Avons... lol
