need help with picking autox tires
Posted: Wed Aug 02, 2006 8:36 am
i just dont know what to do. i have a auto 92 turbo legacy with kyb agx struts and intrax lowering springs.
i need some thing that will be good for autox, lots of grip and what not.
but they will also be my street tires.
so i need some thing that will last a little longer since i drive a lot.
(since feb when i got my car i have done over 11,500km)
i was thinking the falken azneis but have heard they dont last to long for daily driving. or even a set of hankooks.
now on two part number two.
i have my stock 15" wheels, while not the prettest thing, they are not to bad for weight (30.2lbs a wheel/tire).
if i went with these wheels i would do a 205/50/15 tire
i also have my 17" wheels, they look wicked on the car but are really heavy (44.6lbs a wheel/tire).
so i dont really want to stick with these.
i have a chance to buy a friends wheels off his 01 impreza for fairly cheap.
they are 16x7 and fairly light. they will look like this on my car but silver.
if i go with these wheels i will get 215/45/16 tires.
so i guess what im asking is which size wheel will be the best to go with, what tire size will be the best, and also which tires should i get for autox/daily driving.
