Performance tires

[Coralgurl]

Can anyone recommend a good performance tire? Old tires are goodyears, only lasted 30,000+/- kms and my boyfriend won't put them back on my car this year, slicks is an understatement....lol. I've got a quote for coopers, these are an all season which would help extend the life of my snow tires, stay on longer in the fall, back on earlier in the spring. I don't have much of a choice regarding tires because of my rim size.

Thanks

+1 30000km is nothing
I have Wranglers with 75000k on them, and the guys at the shop still pass them as "great". lots of tread still

You guys are lucky, I only get about 8-10k, off my summer tires, so 1 or 2 summers if I'm lucky

I think with tires (like anything) you get what you pay for. buy the cheap ones and you will replace often, spend the xtra $ and you should get more. if you have a good alignment in you wheels and dont drive like a 16 year old boy picking up chicks, you should be able to get 50,000k easy imo

I'm trying to find pricing on the ones I have and it looks like these tires are $494 a piece. The dealer and tire shop told me they were a good tire but that's all I would get out them. I'm not looking to cheap out but I don't want to spend $2000 on tires that will last 3 years max. It's not a high end sport car but I'd still like some performance. Hankook and continentals were also recommended.

hankook makes one of the best tires these days

Ok ignore my last post, my current tires are only $106 each, cheap. So will invest in something better. But was told they were good.....meh.. Will look into the hankooks.
