tyres for a 3

lisa3 · 08-25-2008, 04:05 PM

will be renewing shortly and am looking for some advice as to a suitable tyre, to improve on the ones from the factory which I don't find up to the notch. Anyone have an opinion?

There are a lot of options depending on what you want out of them.

Peformance tire? all season? long lasting? good grip? Better in rain?

Potenza RE01's are incredible tires for summer and ultimate grip. ( I use them )

A cheaper tire that comes close would be the Kumho Ecsta

Bridgestone Turanza's are good all season tires. I'd personally stay away from Michelin MXV4's they are just plain aweful.

Thats about all I can think of off the top of my head.

thanks, I am looking for something that is better in the wet, a bit more stability.
