I want tires that squeal loud!!
 
I am considering many tires options at the moment but as my title suggests am looking for maximum squeal. In the whole time I have owned my z I have been using the stock advan sports and they haven't even made a sound. I realize some tires because of the compounds used spin but don't squeal. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

MY ADVANS cry lol. not in a straight line but sliding they are loud !!!

The more you want your tires to squeal the more your wallet needs to squeal.

RonRizz 12-10-2013 06:37 PM

I usually look for stray cats to stick under tires before mashing the gas. TONS of squeal.
(disclaimer for cat lovers....this was a joke. I have 2 cats of my own)

You guys are comical bunch, got a couple real good laughs. In all seriousness I can literally smoke my tires bald and it not make any sound whatsoever.

TerribleONE 12-10-2013 07:20 PM

Are you wanting this just so you know when you are approaching the limit of the tire or what? My PSS's will make some noise around the corners however in a straight line, not much except for a few chirps going 2nd-3rd

XxACExX 12-10-2013 07:35 PM

I am looking for straight-line squeal. Through my research I have noticed that good tread siping and xl load range would possibly be the best choice. Just trying to gather information on other drivers experiences with their tires.

Haboob 12-10-2013 07:36 PM

Remove tires from wheels.

Place wheels back on car.

Put car on ground.

Drop the clutch and punch the throttle.

hmm you're in Canada? don't drive with the windows down?

DEpointfive0 12-10-2013 07:44 PM

May I ask why? And I believe that once tires get hot you lose the squeal. And the squeal should be caused by crappy traction or the grooves in the tire, in which I will recommend snow tires

I am looking to satisfy the inner kid in me LOL! I hear you about the winter tires, I am actually thinking to get Michelin as3's. Do you think an all season tire would suffice?

No. I doubt any Michelin would make any noise.
And the reason why it would be really difficult (in my mind) to get tire sqeual out of a regular tire in a straight line is because the tire isn't fighting for grip, and on turns you are, also, the directionality of the treads, if it's in line with the way they are turned, probably nothing sound wise

When I saw squeal I rushed in without reading the rest.

DEpointfive0 12-10-2013 08:10 PM

I think you could try underinflating your tires. Maybe and/or setting your toe as much as humanly possible.
You'll get weird handling, but hell, you're the one wanting tire squeal

BGTV8 12-10-2013 08:30 PM

Can I suggest hearing aid's .....

XxACExX 12-10-2013 11:04 PM

Thanks to all for the suggestions.I will report back my findings-lol! On another note if I decide to change out of my tires to a profile of 30 both front and back will there be too much gap and will I need to lower the car?

shaun66 12-10-2013 11:59 PM

Never took that into consideration looking for tires! Next time though! :yum:

/Angelo350Z/ 12-11-2013 12:01 AM

You can always get sh!tty tires OP. No traction means lots of noise and sliding around.

I'm already getting too much sliding around with the advans. It does not matter how much spin I produce they will not make a sound. I think maybe in the fall and spring months when the temps are cooler in canada the rubber maybe getting to hard thus the sliding effect. This is also why I'm thinking to go with a nice set of all seasons.

... The harder the rubber and the sliding is probably the reason for tire squeal, lol.

Brother, get some off road or winter tires first, or get some REALLY POS Federal tires or something.
I doubt a good all season will give you noise

Jordo! 12-11-2013 02:11 AM

Keep the same tires, add 50 - 75 lbft more torque :icon17:

Seriously tho', narrower, less sticky tires will probably make more noise if that's what you really want... they will spin faster, grip less, and not provide better traction as they heat up, so they should slide and squeal more.

Traction, stability, handling, etc will go out the window tho',

and possibly the driver as well if you stomp on the brakes...

chrischhorn 12-11-2013 03:22 AM

You guys got this all wrong.....some of you at least. Some people like the squeal as it lets you know as the tires reach its breaking point. RE-11's squeal some but as they squeal, you are VERY close to the breaking point. My BFG Rivals on my AutoX wheels squeal like a normal street tire would and has progressive slip so even though they are near the breaking point, I still have some leeway before they give all the way. Honestly, the BFG squeal more but they are also a better tire. I feel more comfortable on my 225/50/16 rivals then I do my 245/40/18 RE-11A's. This weekend hopefully I can test between both sets. If you wanna squeal em just to squeal, well then get yourself a set of All-season tires.

XxACExX 12-11-2013 06:38 AM

Ok, I have nailed it down to three Tires. Continental DWS, Michelin as3's, or Bridgestone 970's. I think I might go with the continentals considering they are the cheapest and I might order an extra set because for some reason I do not think they will last very long-lmao!!
Also I plan on getting 305's in the rear and 265's up front. Will I have any figment issues with the stock nismo rims?

winnre 12-11-2013 10:20 AM

Oh I didn't see you were in Canada. You need to buy American tires if you want squeal. Canadian tires are too polite to squeal.

Drive with teenage girls and Justin Beaber. Lots of squealing.

That makes sense & think of all the noise & squealing that will happen after you lose control & hit a tree.

Just install a whistle tip. Instant "squealing" all day long. If you don't know what that is YouTube it.

I am 39, how old are you?

Thought I would give a quick update to everybody, it seems I cannot get all seasons with 305 rears so I am leaning towards maybe hankook v12's but they assured me these tires were squeal happy lol!
