Picking up new tires tomorrow...
Probably gonna go with a full set of BFGoodrich g-Force Sports... great performance for a decent price ($100/tire).
Before I go, anyone got any recommendations before I pick up these? try to stick in the same price range and performance level.
I've had a set of Kumho Ecsta ASXs on there for about a year now... near racing slicks in the back now... they've been good tires, but I'm lookin for something with a different tread pattern and a little better grip... so the g-Force Sports sound like a good alternative.

I did end up going with the g-Force Sports... shop I'm using didn't have my sizes in stock, so they're ordered and I'll have 'em on Monday. A couple buddies of mine work there, and I got an awesome discount... $326 for all four tires, and that includes install labor.
pics then...

Thats a good deal for four tires, I just paid 260 for two KDW2's. I can mount and balance them myself at work though. Let me know how they grip.

I picked up the g-Force Sports on Monday... just haven't gotten around to taking pictures until today. I'm really liking the tires though... they grip like crazy, although I haven't really pushed it yet and I haven't driven in the rain yet, either.
I figure I'll run up to the north georgia mountains sometime in the next week or two, when I get a chance... see how they fair up there on the switchbacks.
and just a random one I snapped once it got dark... just cause.

wut dimensions are they clone?
just remember, brand new tyres generally always feel better than worn out/borderline run-down tyres......u'll need a few miles on it to wear into the effective tread.
what pressures are u running? stock suspension at the moment right?

yeah, stock suspension. They're 205/55 in the front, 225/50 in the rear, mounted on 16s... running 36 psi and they're filled with nitrogen... I dont really know what filling it with nitrogen does, but my buddy at the shop said it's better and supposedly maintains correct pressure better than standard air.
