yea its technically my first mod so id like to stay away from slicks, I've heard a lot of good things about super sports, ill look into the sport comp 2's and rs3's i have to watch out for my budget as well

Everyone will do a sale for labor day or whichever one is coming up. Check eBay too. I got a special eBay only sale from tirerack.com on my sport comps. Was 118$ off the price on their website

I've had 6 different tires on my car. Out of the 200 tread wear I like the Falkin 615K's the best. Good traction dry and wet and fairly quiet on the highway. If you can wait a month the new 615k+ will be out and tire rack has a killer deal on them.

Same type of pattern as the Nitto NT01's which are my all time favorite. Just a little soft for a daily driver.

I meant asymmetrical, not directional. My bad. I feel like you won't be able to rotate them, and you'll have to pitch them while they still have tread left
