Where, if any can I find a past thread on possibly a poll for tire favorites. Or what are you guys mostly running and why? Need to choose tires for my mock up.

If they are just for mock up, then you might want to buy a budget tire, but if you are looking for a good all around, I'm partial to Nitto 555's. It will really depend on what you plan to use the car for. ?

Thanks Jon
I guess I should have rephrased that inquire. For daily use with some track time. Im just trying to weigh out the differences between Nitto, Goodyear F1, Michelin PS2, etc.

Michelin all the way we run them on everything. Expensive but nice to ride on for street and track.

If you can afford them, I agree with Chris. For a great performing tire that won't break the bank, then I suggest the Nitto out of the three you mentioned.

BFG KDW TA 2s is what DSE and Air Ride are running, as well as us. Price and quality are a great value.

Nitto's are good to.

PS2s are awesme and expensive, we run those on a few cars. But it is a $1100 burnout in EmptyNest with 345 / 30 / 19. Can't aford that very often VS a $600 burnout with 335 / 30 / 18 BFGs

I've been running Kumo's on my last project and they feel and handle great.
