Hey guys i've managed to wear out my front tires in short order and right now i'm looking for something

1. good performance on street (no track duties)
2. durable
3. Hopefully under 100 dollars per tire

Name me a brand?

ps: i'm running 15 inch wheels

Nankang Ns2 195/55/15 $100

as a point of reference. How much do things like Falken cost? so i can compare? i am so not going to buy falkens

15 inch performance tires are about $150-$160

Semi-slick can be had for $200

You obviously get what you pay for, but none of your 3 options really match.

2nd hand tires are about $40 that last approx 12 months

Nankang are prob the best budget tire around.

Kumho Ecsta 712's are awesome..
As with the Toyo T1-S and Yokahama ES100...
All low-medium priced..

Falken's are a cheaper substitute.. u get what you pay for mate..

Simex Tyres....

Rated Best Value for Money and 2nd to Pirellis in Wear And Tear....

Falkens are alright during the first yr and half.
After that the compound seems to go hard and slips in the wet.
I got the Falken 115 for $115 each back then

now using G3 $120 each
