Tires BRIDGESTONE or GT Radial

BRIDGESTONE Tires

Michelin is expensive, almost double more expensive than Bridgestone. I have not seen anything different between them so far. I like the Bridgestone so far.

Pros: likes Bridgestone
Cons: Michelin is expensive

I decided to do a shotgun approach to find the solution so I upgraded the dog bone and pendulum mount, eibach sport springs, apr rear sway, 18x9 oz wheels with 235 45 18 re-71’s, I don’t think those tires last very long but wow they’re awesome for now. I can make the tires spin if I want but I can actually launch my car and ease my way through first pretty good and then 2nd on is no traction problems to speak of.

Pros: awesome grip, good launch
Cons: short lifespan

2 seasons before moving to NC, I purchases some expensive [Blizzaks](https://www.bridgestonetire.com/tire-brand/blizzak) that had not been swapped out for summer tires before the car was shipped here (shipped in March). Once we were settled in Durham, I took the car to a local place to get my inspection for plates and all the old guys at Ingold Tire were like "what are these?". They had never seen "snow tires" and they SELL tires.

GT Radial Tires

We tried a set on our HS Civic, then onto my codrivers CS NC. They're notably off pace from other 200tw (down in grip even to the RS-RR), but they wore like iron and communicated at the limit. Very solid for the money.

Pros: wore like iron, communicated well
Cons: off pace, down in grip
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Love these tires. Run them on my WRX which is significantly heavier, and am between 28 and 30 PSI depending on ambient temp. They are very progressive with their grip, at the upper limits of grip, it is progressive in how much it slips, not just all or nothing. Have fun with them!

Pros: progressive grip, progressive slip
Vehicle: Subaru

Friend has a set, they are pretty good for how cheap they are, but they won't be as fast as most of the other 200 tw tires.

Pros: pretty good, cheap
Cons: not as fast
Vehicle: Toyota

My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.

Pros: predictable, smooth transition
Cons: bad grip, wear quickly
Vehicle: Honda Civic
