i was just wondering if anyone has these tires and if so how they have lasted and any other useful information that i should know. i plan on purchasing the factory size. i would appreciate any thoughts or concerns or even suggestions on a good tire to replace the original rubber on my goat.

nahhhhhhh .. bridgestone S03s ... are hella pimp.. even harder on the pocketbook tho LMFAO..."full race"

Falken Azenis are really good for grip/drift "good all around.. soft compound"

Advan racing tires are good aswell ... Neova/AD48/AD3ZR... my friend has um on his VW GTI "advan Neova" ... "they suck when it rains tho"...havent heard much about the Parada's ...

those are the only 3 street tires i would ever drop on my ride.... :willy: arty:

I had Yoko's on my Tahoe a couple of years ago. Now, duh, I know these were SUV tires, however they wore INCREDIBLY fast. Great tires while they lasted, but I'm not real keen on buying Yokos again. Before purchasing, besure to look at the wear factor, and owner reviews on tirerack.com if possible.

You have to check out AVON tires. Not a household name but they have been around for years building racing tires. Check tire rack and go to the comparison chart to see Avon ratings over other tires - you'll be surprised. I have a set on my PT Cruiser GT and for $100 for ultra high performance all weather tires, you can't beat them.
