I'm also running PSS Posted by Snowmobile [Email] (#686) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Snowmobile) on Mon, 17 Mar 2014 03:09:03 In Reply to: Re: opinions on brewcityboost?, Dean, Sun, 16 Mar 2014 20:12:07 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
same size, on a 2004 arc. Really great tire. Way overkill for my car's power (which is a 220hp 2.3L arc not aero, and not tuned, but upgraded suspension with konis), but the handling is very sharp with this setup and they are quite good in water also. Upfront cost is reasonable, but these are really sticky tires. I got about 2 seasons out of them. If you develop rear toe/camber issues or load down the car heavily, inducing similar conditions, eg on a road trip, it is remarkable how quickly they can go! Fast wear is of course expected on a performance summer tire.
I would buy them again, except that I don't quite need all of that performance and the wear was kind of quick... so I'll probably go with Bridgestone RE970AS, as it is also favourably rated by folks here who have done track days etc, and yet it is a little better wearing, and perhaps a little better suited to cold days in the fall (we get winter, and I've got snows on 16" wheels for that). $480 for a set of 4 right now at tire rack.
good tires transform a car!
