Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE

If you get some Bridgestone Serenity tires, the road noise isn't nearly as bad.

I used these tires / steel wheels on my 2008 Jetta for one winter. If you've never used winter tires you need to try it. All wheel drive is nice to get moving but they can't help you turn or stop. Winter tires do everything better - more grip for turning, stopping, and starting. The winter rubber compound and tread gives much better grip in all cold weather conditions - dry, wet, sleet, slush, or snow.

I have Ventus V12 Evos in 205/40/17 on my MX-5 and I really like them. As as street tire/occasional autocross tire they have not let me down. I've run them to temps as low as the low 40's Fahrenheit and have been pleased with their performance.

I have a set of the Ventus V12 Evos on my R53, and they see auto-x and daily driving. I think they are great tires for the money, they are quiet, precise, and have some pretty incredible grip.

I'm running the V12's and find them pretty good for track/auto x duties. They especially shine in the wet. I find that I need to run them at a higher psi (around 38-40) to compensate for the 'sidewall issue' though.

I'm personally very happy with my Bridestone Pole Position RE960AS tires. (Way better than the Goodyear Eagle LS's the car came with) They withstood several trips to the track this summer, and seriously outperformed anyone there when it was wet out.

I live in Langley. I run Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 which work great for the amount of snow we get, while still being a decent performance tire.

Hankook Ventus V12 Evo Best tire I've ever had, esp. in the rain

I have the RSe05 (17x8) with Bridgestone Potenza RE-11A 235/45R17 and I noticed I have slight chunking of the blocks on the outer shoulder after one heavy track weekend at Barber Motorsports Park.

The factory tires on my 335i are Japanese made Bridgestone RE050 Run-flats. They suck, harsh ride, low tire life, loud, and most of all one small pot-hole and you got an instant sidewall bubble.
