What tires do you want?
 
As many enthusiasts are particular about the tires they put on their car, what model tire would you like to see as standard from the factory? I'm hoping summer tires will at least be an option! I'd like to see something like Star Specs, or similar. Would suck if they put garbage rubber on there, adding $600+ to the price you pay bc your first stop is the tire shop.

(Subaru did this with the WRX - the RE92's were horrible and resulted in the abs going off rather often, along with poor cornering grip. Just about anything was better than those.)

Falken 912s? I have em on my car. They seem to do the job.

I'm guessing whatever tire you see on the TC is what will probably come with the car. Can't expect much from a cost effective price point as well as trying to appeal to the "do it your self" crowd. Decent rims would be nice though.

I'm going to give the Falken RT-615K's a shot. I have Kumho V700's on the RX, but I barely squeeze 3,500 miles out of them.

I think the STI's run Dunlop sp sport 600s or close to it, so that might be in an option pack on the BRZ side since subaru already has the hookup, thus maybe scion will get it?

Bridgestone Potenza RE-11

why waste your time? the star specs are at least as grippy and alot cheaper. as far as performance street tires, if they have the star spec in the size you want i dont know why you would want something else...unless you are worried about best times in rain or something.

Last time i played on my AE86 on a mt i just got a Ventus R-S3, and i've been a falken RT-215 to RT-615 and I'll say R-S3 i'm loven' it

I hope they put something decent on the car; some RE010's would do.

Type[R]+ 08-25-2011 01:34 AM

Toyo R888's all the way!

Giccin 08-25-2011 04:31 AM

Going to use up all the trend of the stock tires... :p

But Bridgestone or Falken. :> Or... Yokohama even... or Toyotires! I have no big preference.. unless someone wants to make me sway towards a brand. haha

I'd like to see bridgestone re11 or something similar from yoko or toyo :)
