2012 Z touring (tires question)

These are a pretty decent tire, had them on my sentra spec-v. Looks like they don't sell those ADVAN sports in your size anymore. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

Thanks, I'll look into that.
I was pretty sure tire-rac was still selling the Advan Sports V103's (e/f, front/rear)?

Maybe they're not made anymore, and that is why they are expensive on tire racks website..who knows.

I made a mistake a few months ago when I replaced my tires. I did the necessary research and learned alot - but apparently not enough. Because my Z is my DD and I dont (didn't) run it hard, I opted to go with the Goodyear F-1. Not a bad choice for putt-ing around town or whatever, and the cost is very reasonable (aka cheap), but at higher speeds or quick movements or lane changes... it's definitely not the tire for this car. The sidewalls are too soft, so they "fold" or "roll"... they make the car loose. The car is way faster than the tires. Therefore, I MUST burn them down! They do look good, and leave a nice wide trail behind when pulling off from some of the kiddie cars that like to (occasionally) test the old man. But I won't be buying them again, and I certainly wouldn't recommend them. Just my

Buy some Michelin Pilot Sports. Spend the money. Your car will perform as designed. They are expensive, save money by not spending it on energy drinks, bad tattoos and expensive cell phone plans. My 09 is a daily driver and I'll probably get 27-28K miles out of them. A whole lot better than the 17K on the originals.

I'm at 28k and still on originals, granted they are due to be changed. They aren't so much so it's dangerous though.
