Tires

i prefer Bridgestone Potenza. They came on my used 2001 base box. It had 62k miles when i got it. it now has 175k miles.

i'm on my third set on the rear.

but get this...i'm still running the original pair on the front! they still look and perform fine. i can't believe they have 110k miles!!

they're W-rated, assymetrical and look great.

I've got the Hankook V12's. Nice for the price! Run much better when hot.

Wow I am amazed to hear that, I had those tires on a 350Z and thought they were the loudest tires, after 1k miles, I'd ever had on a car. I'd never consider buying those tires again. Glad you like them.
