Tires YOKOHAMA or GENERAL TIRE

The general altimax is the tire I fit on all my sedans. I used to run the Goodyear assurance triple tread, but I feel these are sportier, and have better wet traction. The sidewall is a little soft, so I run a little higher pressure. Between an Acura CL, Audi A4 and JSW the altimax have never let me down.

I've had 512s, 912s, and currently S. Drives. I couldn't tell you which ones stretch better but performance wise, the Falkens don't come close to the Yoks. My car is a summer daily and the S. Drives are great in dry and wet conditions. Good luck.

S-Drives are by far the stickier tire. Much much stickier than the bull**** Falken. I still would not have a problem running a Falken for the pure look of it. Never would I get it for any performance oriented reason.

im running s drives on my 17x8 momos, 205 40. the stretch is minimal but these tires stick very well for the street.

I can't speak for the stretch as I have them on my stock bugatti's but the S.Drives are an extremely nice tire (at least for regular street driving). Got them on a couple months ago and love them. Wet and dry performance has been outstanding.

S.Drives NO QUESTION!!! I have had both. . . I will NEVER run those garbage falkens again. im running 195/40 16's on my 9's as we speak and they are 100% exactly what I have been looking for in a tire. the falkens were 100% opposite.

From personal expierence, the s.drives are a better tire, stretch slightly less but are a far better tire. the 512s are just good for stretching and thats about it.

A little spendier, but absolutely love my Yokohama S.Drives in 205/50/15. Best tires I've driven, hands down. They outperform the Dunlops in every condition, are queiter and stiffer sidewalls, don't squeal etc...

I'm running General Exclaim UHPs on my E30, I think in the same side you're looking for. Some say the sidewall is too soft, but I think it's fine for me. Road noise is a little high though. Grip is very good in both the wet and dry.

Have you ever driven a car with Yokohama A032R tires? They're extremely noisy (like an old Toyota 4x4 with big off-road tires) The only thing they're good for is roadracing in the rain, not much else. I've driven a few cars on em and i could actually feel the tread vibration in the body of the car on top of the loud roaring road noise.
