I am searching for new tires and have come up with a list of possibilites. I need opinions, however, from people who have used these tires in the past or know others that have. Right now I am trying to decide between Pirelli P7000 Super Sports, Falken ZE 502s, Kumho Supra 712s, Toyo Proxes T1-S, or Yokohama Paradas. Right now I have Potenza RE910 205/45/16s on my car and am looking for a tire with more dry traction performance but one that has good wet traction as I live in a fairly rainy area. I am also open to any other tire suggestions. Thanks.

i just posted a blurb about the ze-502s today...check it out here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t33092.html)

you should also check out the nitto nt-450

POTENZA SO2 POLE POSITION. Sticks like glue. Excellent on wet. I have 215/40ZR17's. If they're not available anymore, try the S03 PP. Heard it's great, too, but i like the agressive looks of the S02 better.:)

I have not been able to find the Potenza S02s or S03s in my size. These were my first choices but I have been told they do not come in the size i am looking for so I will have to wait until I decide to get bigger rims. But thanks for the suggestion.

p7000 super sports. great tire excellant wear expect 20 25k from 225/40/18. The best wet traction i have eveer seen. Never spin, unles you race in wet they will. Dry traction is very good sticks to ground, i have only got the tires to chirp once which is disappointing in a sense but also means they are stickin and not spinnin....

Have you taken a look at Bridgestone Expedia S01's? Their tread design is similar to that of the S03. I have them on my other car (they're the second set already; the first ones lasted more than 2 years). 195/50ZR16, also available in your size, I think*. Great performers, too. Good luck! :)

*The only problem is, you have to come over to the Philippines to get them. :(

Potenza S01's. I'll have to go check those out. Thanks for the suggestion.

Not Potenza. Expedia. I'm not sure if there are Potenza SO1's.

Oh yeah. Sorry about that. I didn't read carefully enough there.

No prob, dude. :cool:

kumho ecsta supra 712. they're the best performance tire for the $$, hands down. great wet traction, great dry traction, and excellent treadwear.

Yeah, I am tempted by the Kumhos but have heard they offer a pretty rough ride and have poor tread wear. Is this true?

Does anyone have an opinion about the Toyo Proxes?
