ive been lookin around and some really great tires i have heard about dont seem to have my size or something on their sizing chart on their websites. Sooooo, what is the best tire of that size for a 5g dropped on neuspeed sports with koni yellow, if camber settings really matter they are about 1-2degrees which is about normal for that drop.
the nitto neo gens are supposedly more resistant to uneven wear. I'm sure they're nowhere near as good a quality tire as the F1's though. I haven't heard any reviews about them yet.
ok...i looked under the eagle f1 and only found like gs3 or something no d...could somebody gimme a link to what these tires look like or a page where i can see the stats. I even looked at the goodyear site.

fmshaw1971 told me about 40,000 miles if you treat them nice
as for the author of this thread, I would get camber kits first if you all ready didnt, youre going to spend a good amount for tires just to have them wear out faster than theyre supposed to

40K? Nah, that's a little too high. You would have to have perfect camber and toe and baby them. With spirited driving, I am expecting to get about 25K out of them. That's really GOOD considering I got 6k out of Yokohama 520s and about 10k out of Pirelli Pzeros.
The GS-D3 is every bit as good as the S-O3, but $40 cheaper. Don't listen to that nonesense about a soft sidewall. It would be true in the stock size, but if you are running a 40 aspect sidewall, it won't matter. If you don't like it, bump up the pressure about 5lbs and it will fix it. The GS-D3s are rated to handle a maximum of 52 psi.
