You want grip that's the price you pay. I love them, on my 3rd set over 3 cars and to be honest with you I got good life out of them. On my 2nd set, I think I logged a good 35k on them.

well IF i can get 30-35k I'll consider....How much a tire? If I were to go with a 200 treadwear I've heard nothing but great things from the falken 615's. And NOT just from rich. lol

[Almighty-Si]

I think I paid $65 a tire from tire rack for my 16's

I guess you love understeer and no traction too!

stop being a pussy, on a FWD you only ever have to replace the fronts often anyway. I've got the falken 615's with 200 treadwear on my car. including the trip to the dragon and ripping on it all the time the fronts are still on par to go 12,000 to 15,000 miles. the rears haven't even worn enough to really measure a difference yet so I'll probably get 40,000+ from those. just don't rotate your tires and only the front will were quickly, then you're only buying two tires at a time.

hmmmm You guys ride my nuts hard. it hurts sometimes. LOL I'm just trying to be economical I'll call tommorow my local place to see if they can get falken or sumitomo. I get 10% off parts/labor for working in the corporate center. Deals come out pretty fair for shop prices
