15 inch tire recommendation ?

[90blue]

probably gonna order the Yokohama Advan Neova AD08-R this week, in 205/50-15 using the 15" BBS wheels from my 1995 Merlot. should look better now that the car is finally lowered.

Would like to hear your review on the Yokos 08s.

bump, never did order new tires, just checking to see if anyone has some new reviews?

I need some new 15" tires like yesterday

Just put on a new set of Kumho Ecsta 195 50 15s. Very reasonably priced & very happy with the performance as everyday drivers. I have only used them in the dry.
The guys at Discount Tire in Spring, TX treated me right!

Not the best of reviews for you, Randy. But I have been running Hankook VENTUS V2 CONCEPT2

Since the Dial-in's were mounted. With an open-diff. and on the street they wear well and little noise ( remember I have 70D engine mounts so finding noises is a fact of life ). Great in all weather. Sticky enough for the out roads back from the BRP runs.

But you have glimpses of Noir and the rabbit-hole. Her next set are going to be Hankook VENTUS Z214

and a spare set of wheels. Don't think these would be good in rain.

I have heard extremely good reviews for Bridgestones RE002 as well.

How about Hankook rs3 in 195/50r15 or 205/50r15?

I am also looking for a road tire with less road noise, the middle gelin pilot I have in the car now are driving me nuts, they sound like a off road truck tires

BF Goodrich Sport Comp 2. Whisper quiet, unbelievable wet traction (even in light wet snow, don't ask) and EXCELLENT traction.

[JamieH]

And if you are hesitant about the Sport Comp 2s because of the tread wear rating of 340, thinking that it's an indication of them not having great grip, I assure you, they punch above their weight.

The only downside to them are their limited sizes for a 15" application. Which are 195/50 and 195/55.

Hey Phattie? 15X7 BBS? Dude, the 95M BBS are 15X6, did you get new hardware?

I got a set of Star Spec 2 and it's the only set of tires of mine that don't have the 65mph shimmy.
