    Compare Tire Search Results

    It's an American site, so prices and availability may vary over here, but the good part about that site is they let users review the the tyres and rate them on lots of different aspects like ride comfort, tread wear, dry grip, wet grip etc and averages the results. Popular models often have hundreds of reviews, so you can get a pretty good picture of what they are like.

    Don't buy Goodyear Ducaros. Terrible tyre in the wet (unless you like drifting everywhere!). After a few months I had to change them.

    Dunlop SP300E are much better in the wet but after a few years they go off.

    I can tell you that on a motorkhana course the Dunlops are more than 10% faster than the Goodyears.

    Ive got Michelin Energy XM1 on my fairmont. Have 45k on them, only slight wear on edges. Good tread left, still grip well. I tow a crap load and also carry weight. Love them.
