Default Gotta buy tires..

I absolutely have to.

Where to?

Tire Rack or Discount Tire Direct?

Aaaah.

Meh..

Lonnie wants me to try the Kumho Ecsta ASXs, but I'm a fan of the BFG Traction T/As..

Opinions?

FYI, I'm looking for all-seasons at the moment.

Yeah I'm pretty sure the Falkens are affordable.

I've rode in couple different cars with them they are real quiet.

After doing the research, I put ASXs on the Stealth. I don't drive it much, but bang for the buck, they were the way to go...

What size do you need? My vote goes to either the Kumho ASX, Avon Tech M550, or the new Kumho AST...
