Semi Race Tyres Suggestions

[m0nty ITR]

Getting my new wheels in a few weeks and I wouldn't mind some feedback on semi race tyres. Tyre profile will be 215/45/17s matched to Volk TE37s. What are the best brands and are there any recommendations for a mildly modded DC5R. Car runs Tein Flex coilovers.

Thought about getting tyres for the stockies but I wanna show off the Rays at every possible opportunity. They're lighter too so would be better suited to the street slicks.

I wouldn't recommend using Semi's for a street driven car. 1) Obviously they don't last 2) They don't get the heat required for them to work.

Just get a uber high performance street tyre.

Michelin Pilot Sport $$$ for uber street tyres

R-comps are also worse during wet weather due to smaller grooves.

Just get high performance tyre for street and getting some 15 inch rims with semis for track. Unless u got loads of $$ can afford 17inch semis...

I recommend Falken Azenis RT615 semi slick for street & track!
They relativly long lasting than other semi, low noise like normal steet tryre, looks good and good value! but I have checked that they don't have your size 215/45/17, they only have 215/40/17 or 225/45/17

You can get Bridgestone RE55S in 215/45/17
