Ordered new tyres. Bridgestone Potenza RE002's, hopefully in by the end of the week. Couldn't justify getting 595RS R's on my little GSi =[

How much ya pay for em? and what size? i couldn't justify spending any more than $100 a corner on the shitty gsi
$185 per corner in 205/50/R15. I wanted to go 16's, but don't have the time to choose and order new rims. My current RE001's are screwed. The GSi is a great little car, I'm certainly under no delusions as to how fast it is/isn't, but it gives me pleasure through the windy's when pushed, and good tyres are a must.Quote:

I have to disagree... i paid $105 a corner fitted and balanced for 205/45/16s. Only downside is that the rubber is porous so air leaks out (bout 2psi drop every month), which isn't a problem since i pump them everytime i fill up anyway. They brake/grip just as well as my old KU31s, not noisy, comfortable. I can still take corners at the same speed and feel secure that the tyres won't give out. Saved a few hundred and no regrets
Up here the RSR's are sub $180 each for 15's
If I had more time to shop around..Quote:

There you go...
Damn that's a good price man, what size?
i forget now. but for my oem itr rims. 195/50/15 i think. option 1 always has good prices. the rsr never let me down worth every dollar. only downside is the fronts wear out very quick. rears last though
Haha yeah no haters yet! Actually kind of disappointed.Quote:
