thanks for the info. would you recommend the RE-11A or RS3 over Pilot Super Sports? i am currently debating between the three. im looking to go with a 245/40 on 18x8.75 wheels.

Everything is a balance. Change one parameter and expect to change something else. That's how we build our cars, but everything is methodically thought out and executed. :thumbsup:

RE-11A is like a Pilot Super Sport on a higher level. The RS3 has better grip than both tires in dry, but not as good in wet. Everything is a compromise. :thumbsup:

thanks!

@CSG David , If I have a better budget, what is your opinion about these wheels TSW Nurburgring?

I found some guys on the web who say they are soft wheels...and some others guys who have some vibrations problems on the highway...

What is your opinion?

Or I can always look for a good set of Enkei PF01?

You seem to be moving from a $1000 budget up to a $1500 budget...

Maybe $700/$800 for tires and $1000/$1200 for the wheels, then maybe around $2000 budget

For my tires, I want g-Force T/A KDW on the oem or on a new set of wheels there is the question ;)

Then I petition for a thread title change.

I don't think I can do this.

Nabbed a set of used XXR 530's (18") for $250, nabbed a very slightly used set of 235/40 18" Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 2's for $150. All in including mounting and balancing was under $500, there are deals to be had if you are patient - for instance the asymmetric 2 tires are great all arounders, they are standard equipment on the new Focus ST's. But then you have guys who want to swap them for a more hardcore tire like Dunlop ZII's and the like - often you see them dump the OEM tires for not much money.

Ok I got it, i renamed the thread like you suggested ;)

Pure preference to be honest. What is the true goal in the end? I ask questions so you can come to a conclusion rather than purchase multiple parts and end up spending much more than your intended budget in the long run. :)

To be honest, at the beginning my goal was to get nice wheels keeping the OEM quality with a good set of tire, street/track...

For the tires am fines, I will take a set of g-Force T/A KDW but thank you for you suggestions, they are into my options list maybe Goethe future.

Then now with a better budget am looking for a good set of wheels...or keeping the OEM because as you said, OEM wheels are very good and solids compared to many cheap wheels.

I found a good deal on :

Gram Lights 57C
Spec:
5x100
17x7.5
Offset 48
Currently On Continental 245 for maybe 3 sessions.

I know, I can't run these type of tires Into the street... But I can finish the thread on the track and put the g-Force after....

G-Force is a not so good tire...once you get a taste of those higher end tires, you're going to realize what you have been missing out on. ;)
