I'd say it has longer life expectency than rubber flares.

quick question to anyone that can help I need to know fast how much should I be paying for some half decent tyres for my GTR? 18x10" 265s on all 4 currently have some bridgestones on but need new ones or can anyone recommend something decent value for money? car is street / track day once every 3 months.

thanks in advanced

I can tell you that the cheapest tyre I got when my front right destroyed itself was a kumho for 260 dollars for one tyre 265/35/18. So... Expect to pay more than that.

[UNR33L]

cool cool

[HEKT1K]

i've been quoted $275 for a KU36 in that size... shop around

[funkymonkey]

lol @ KU36 semi slicks on a daily driver. Hope you enjoy changing tyres every 3 months.

FWIW I get 265/35/18 KU36's for $240 a pop.

I'd recommend a KU31 for dailies or a KU17 for best bang for buck.

Also I get Federal 265/35/18 595-RSR's for $350 each

[KamikazeNinja34]

Kumho are reasonably good quality as a tyre (better than the other 3 i still have on! ) but id get something in a Toyo if you can...last forever and grip well enough. I cant say what their performance tyres are like, the only set ive had were on the N16... 185s! lol. but they were a comfy ride

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Kumho's I think are a best all-rounder and they cater for all types of driving and a lot of ppl I see recommend it.

Toyo's are top of the range as my mechanic thinks.

Bridgestone's / Yokohama's all do a good job, but you would pay a bit.

I had Yokohama Advans, nice tyre but were harder compared to my Kumho's.

Pretty sure thats my 'odd one out' (my only half decent tyre)

Ecsta SPT KU31...does a good job. Just have to replace the other 3 cheap Fullrun compliance tyres lol

i was not recommending them. my point was that he should shop around.

f*k that shit get some hero's thats where its at..

[funkymonkey]

I use Kumho KU31's on the ceffy and 595-EVO's on the R32

KU31's have nice n strong sidewalls, which are good for stretch too.
