Owner reviews for tires

Have the Indy 500 on wife’s Vett. Great value summer tire. But for not much more you can get continental ECS02, and those are amazing tires.

I have run the GMax before I got a dedicated set of wheels and they did really well, well balanced and still held up for daily driving.

Continental ECS02. About $100 more than the indy 500s but better at pretty much everything.

I second the kumhos v730. For the price they are pretty hard to beat. They don’t heat up as fast as ao52’s but the grip level is similar and they last longer

I have NC Miata and run Kumho V730s as a track and autocross tire. Might be like 0.5 sec off the fastest tire over a 60 sec course and holds up well on track.

I had 245/55/r18 Goodyear eagle enforcer winter tires and they are probably the best winter tires I’ve ever had. Even on ice (at reasonable speeds) they handled well.

My first set (255 55 R20) lasted for 4 years. Same size on the 2nd set I had installed in late October of 2023. Superior wet traction in the heaviest of downpours. 80 mph on the parkway with no hiccups! Superb snow traction as well, as I was able to negotiate steep snowy roads with my 2020 Ford Explorer Limited Trim without losing traction.

I have Continentals and love them, wouldn’t go with anything else personally

running KO2s on my FJ but like others are saying theyre not good when it rains. tried toyo at3 on my gx and i think theyre better on-road but they only lasted me couple years. i dont know.. i switched to hankoook dynapro extreme. i find the hankook more quiet than the toyos. very good onroad manners and wet traction

Those tires are very low quality. Rubber is not soft and flexible enough to create proper friction.
