[Supras] TIRE Recomendation

[Sean Cavanaugh]

yes the kuhmo supras suck but the ecsta ASX are really good. Supras are more 
for always dry weather wheras the ASX are fourseason tires.

The Khumo Ecsta Supras SUCK.  Had a set and hated them within the first week 
of buying them.  I had the Khumo MX's before that and they were ok.

I highly recommend the Toyo Proxes 4 or Proxes T1R.  I have the Proxes 4 on 
my MK2 and LOVE them (235/40 17" frt & 255/40 17" rr)!  EXCELLENT dry and 
wet weather traction.  Same with the T1R's that I have on the MK3.  Quiet 
ride and awesome performance and longevity.  I've had the Proxes 4 on my MK2 
for a little over 2 years and they still have about half the tread left.

Here's some info on the Proxes 4...

And the T1R's...

Discount doesn't carry them, at least not here in AZ.  Had to get them 
through another local tire distributor.  Was able to get them for ~$125 per 
tire with our local Supra club discount.  Probably cheaper for the Proxes 4.

You won't be disappointed!!

I know the tire question has  been asked many times so please forgive me for
asking it again.

I'm looking at tires from SAM's Club.  I don't want to spend too much on
tires but I'd like some somewhat decent tires for the rain and dry roads
here in Florida.

Anyone has any experience with BF Goodrich® g-Force T/A KDWS - 225/50ZR16
ORBL tires? Costs about $118. per tire.

Or, can anyone recomend any other tires that Sam's Club carry?

Thanks very much for not screaming at me for not searching the archives
first.

My tires are not  bald, they're just old and cracked and leaking.
