    What tyres are you running on your EK?

    Hi Guys,

    I'm looking to put new rubber on some 15' genuine Civic wheels - any recommendations on what tyres you have found to be best?

    I would be looking for something that provides good grip in the wet and not too noisy - so an all round performer really.

    Currently considering:
    Michelin Pilot Preceda 2
    Bridgestone Adrenaline
    Falken

    Thanks,
    HONDAOEMMUGEN

    I've had Toyo T1S's and Toyo T1R's and both are great tyres!

    Next I will try Kuhmo KU31's cause they are only $100 each!

    T1R's I paid $160 ea,T1S's $120 from TALEB on here.

    i agree on the Toyo T1S
    great grip but abit noisy.
    certainly held up on the track too.

    T1R is even better.

    toyo proxes 4's plenty of grip, find the limit in cornering and gain traction again instantly including in the wet.

    Khumo's, head to tempe for a decent price

    great for wet and dry, had mine for over 10,000ks now and they handle great, very very low road noise, excellent

    dang 225, ku31 is a good all round performer, if you're willing to spend that lil extra u can get re001, although, i'm waiting for the new potenza re-11, even goodyear eagle f1 isn't too bad
