Hi everyone,
So my Goodyear F1 asymmetric all season tires have decided to wear out. I have been doing my research, but have only been left even more confused than before. So I am turning to everyone to see what they would all recommend I get tire wise. At the moment, I still have the stock tires on (235/50/18), but would like to go with a wider tread.
My budget is less than $1,000 including mounting, balance, and install.
Also, please be aware that the front end of the car is 1in lower and the rear is 1/2in lower. I already know that 245's will not work, so that just leaves me with 255s or higher (thinking 265/45/18 could be widest I could go but I have to check clearances)
I live in Sacramento, so the winters can get a little cold hear (below freezing on some nights, but that is not too common). I use the car mainly as a weekend driver for going through the twisty canyons and mountain passes, so I am looking for something that handles well in both dry and wet. However, I am trying to stay away from all season tires (which leaves summer tires only).
What would people recommend?
Many thanks,
Jason
