Tyres
 

Hi guys,

I am having some problems finding a decent tyre in Adelaide for a 225/40/18 set of wheels.

I want something with good grip (dry and wet), and preferrably a decent life of over 30,000kms. Low noise would be a bonus too.

Anyone have any recommendations under $350 / tyre?

You are wishing to order tyres online?

?

If you can't find decent tyres in Adelaide then you are going to buy them online.

Your thread titled "Toyo Tyres" didn't help?

I guess not :P

Much has been learnt in the last week.

You think?

Try the wheels and tyres Section of this forum. Or buy a copy of Motor or Wheels tyre comparison editions, or even try one of the many tyre shops in Adelaide.

Rough rule of thumb:
Grippy
Quiet
Long lasting
Reasonably priced

Choose any 3 - ie. you can get grippy, quiet, reasonably priced but not long lasting. Any tyre is a compromise.

Yes I know. I never suggested all 4, I asked for suggestions of ppl's experiences.

Bridgestone Potenza
Pirelli P-Zero
Yokohama Advans

Most tyres sold here have user's reviews and Tirerack test many of them as well.

Potenza Adrenalin RE001 now RE002 are all of those, brilliant !

I love falken fk452
Honestly don't think I will change from them for a LONG time

Why so good?

Because he hasn't tried anything better. Directional technology is so 90's. Asymmetric is where it's at these days.

Lol that's funny
What makes asymmetric better?

Because the price vs grip/performance vs noise vs life I am very happy with
