On a scale of Nankang NS1(one) to Michelin PSS (ten) could you guys rate the Nankang NS-20, Sumitomo HTR ZIII, General G-MAX AS-03, BFGoodrich G-force Sport Comp-2, and Nitto NT555?
looking for a low cost summer tire with the most grip in the dry, rated for at least 130 mph, and that break loose slowly and with audible feedback (in other words a louder tire, but one that doesn't vibrate or hum). also looking for a thick stiff sidewall. not planning on any stanced/streched nonsense...
had some Kumho Ecsta ASTs (though smaller) in the past that stuck well, but broke loose with no audible warning, they where a bit scary to roll on. on top of that they wore out stupid fast and cost a small fortune considering their poor performance. wound up putting 235/45/17 NS1's on it for the same cost as the 225 Kumho's and was actually much happier. NS1's arent sticky, but they give you plenty of warning before they heave you into a guard rail. now I'm looking for something stickier and speed rated in the same size...
size I'll be looking for is a 235/35/17, 235/40/17 or a 235/45/17. preferably 235/45/17
I know you guys love opinions, so opinion away! I'm also open to other tires in the same spirit as the ones I've come up with, but I'd like to keep costs under $110 a tire...
