BMW bottle caps bought now looking at tires got some ?'s

By Classiccarsrule85
- Mon Apr 06, 2009 8:13 pm #108673 So thanks to Hatchie i bought some bmw bottlecaps i had one but havent found it yet but however i am getting 4 for $50 no tires but they are in good condition so im happy......im looking at discounttire.com for my tires and i can get 4 new for around 150-200 which is fine with me since i need tires anyhow for my si rims.....so my question is what should i look into getting ive read the reveiws and alot are mixed.....i dont care about road noise i do care if it handles good wet and dry dont care about snow since my car isnt going to see the snow anymore lol.....and i would like it to withstand a couple days autoxing without distroying the tire too much to where i would need a new one within a couple days....

So any ideas on a good tire for this?

They are awesome in the dry, like no other tire I've owned. A little sketchy in the rain. They are only supposed to last 10k miles though. But if you had to use a street tire for auto-x, then it's a good choice.

Toyo FTW. I had proxies on my old eclipse and loved them. The T1-R is an amazing tire as well and I used them exclusively on any car I had with a motor swap.
