    I have had these one my second set ! They are great affordable summer tires! For information purposes for anyone interested. They lasted me a year 1 tire rotation in that year. I never had issues with grip or rain till they were almost completely dead 2/32 or whatever mark in the groove of the tire. I drive a civic si and I drive like a crazy person who has places to be. If you drive basic peasant style they will last you a little bit longer id imagine. I burn through all my tires quickly no matter what brand but these are a deal. For comparison I would say that they are like %85 goodyear eagle f1 that’s what characteristic u can expect close but no F1 but dam good still

    Hey guy, what kind of suspension do you have? Is it digressive valving? Springrates? Looks pretty planted.

    What coil overs would you recommend especially with 265 since they are so wide to remain almost stock height because I got them on my car currently and I’m on stock suspension I love the flush look and don’t want to drop it but I’m forced to due to tires rubbing going over bumps or turns sometimes
