[NSW] Which Tyres to buy? 235 18"

[Jezza]

i had some Dunlop SP Sport 3000a on my car 235/40/R18 and they had great grip and traction and were great in the wet (only for 80% of the tyres life) but they have only JUST lasted around 1 year and cant justify paying $250 per tyre if they only last that long so i have bought some Kumho Ecsta asx on there now and they have a better grip and tread life rating then what my dunlops had

Cheers guys. Im deciding on either the TOYO TEO $215 a tyre or the Michelin Pilot Sport 3 at $250 a tyre. Will be booking the car in for Sat morning.
Thanks for all the comments its been real helpful.

Car is booked in for tyres tomorrow morning. Michelin Pilot Sport 3, a little more expensive at $250 each but seem to be a great tyre by the reviews I have read. Will run them for a few weeks and give some feedback for the thread. thanks all

search for blue streak tyres made by bridestone

i've done 20 k on them and have very little wear they

have great grip on them

$100 per tyre it's a bargain

Don't touch Nankang NSII imo, its the most awful tyre i've ever used (i've used a fair few) for a budget i'd go Federal 595 SS for sure, at $141 for the 235/40R18 its awesome.

Oops i'm too late, either way thats an awesome tyre you've chosen you won't be disappointed

Well the Michelins are on the car. Still need to rack up some KM to comment more, however after a short drive today these do stick to the road like no other tyre ive run on the car before. Very happy.
