Plz help me out to choose the tires.

I have no idea what size of wheel you are going with, but as for tires, if you want high performance go with a tire with a treadwear of 240-140.
yokohama advan, michelin ps2, bridgstone potena re050a or re-11, contisport contact 2 or 3, Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec. These are all great highperformance tires

I've narrowed down my choice to Michelin PSS, Yokohama AD08, and Bridgestone RE-11. I don't know if the Z1 star spec come in 19s..

As with all other things, you'll need to pick specific marks of measure and rank them as to how important these are to you. For instance:

Treadwear
Sidewall
Dry Traction
Wet Traction
Cost

Will you be tracking at all?
Will you be doing spirited canyon runs?
What is your budget?

Once you've ranked what's most important to least important, and answered those questions, we'll be able to give you a better idea of which ones would be good for you. For instance:

If all you want is traction, and cost aside: Michelin SS', Bridgestone RE-11's
If you are looking to get a good wheel for a budget: Nitto iNVO's, Hankook V-12's

Thanks guys. The wheel that I am looking for is 19*9.5+22mm front and 19*11+23mm rear. I am doing any track for this wheels but I wany really good tires doing less spins when I take off. Maybe good conering too. Budget is around 2000 aus dollars. So yea, enough infos guys? I dont know, I am noobie about wheels. Sorry, thanks for helping!

Is your budget 2k for tires and wheels, or just for tires? Are Volks cheaper in Australia? I would look at possibly getting some reps, or a different style wheel like enkei if your whole budget is 2k. That is my budget.. and for some reason Volks seem out of the question for every quote I get. I think I may be going with a set of reps for DD then keeping my mb battles for the track.

ADO8 all the way man. You won't be dissapointed.

niznizbobo 10-20-2011 09:26 AM

2k is just for the tires~

corbin09 10-20-2011 09:27 AM

If thats the case, I think almost any tire is in your price range! I would go with the AD08 or re-11 as mentioned. You will be happy with either of those. The re-11's look pretty cool too.

Ryan@Forged 10-20-2011 09:37 AM

I would highly recommend the RE-11. We have had incredible results with this tire on the 370z. The grip is exceptional and we were pleasantly surprised with the long life. We have yet to find a true street tire that performs better.

niznizbobo 10-20-2011 10:22 AM

So bridgestone re-11 is the one you guys saying here right? Alright, I will go and ask the price 2moro! Thank you sooooo much guys. It helps me a lot. Cheers!!!

bleachzed 10-20-2011 10:29 AM

There are two types: bridgestone re-11 and bridgestone re-11s!
What is the difference here?
