vs
Tires OEM BMW or Achilles
For better handling and winter traction, I would consider getting wider tires.
Pros: better handling
Cons: winter traction
Vehicle:
Toyota
I like Achilles but not sure they still make them. Best cheapest tire that stretches really well.
Pros: stretches really well
Cons: unsure availability
I put about 10 laps on a set of Achilles all seasons on stock power at my last drift event and the tires still look new. I had heard bad things about Achilles but so far so good for me.
Pros: tires still look new
Cons: heard bad things
Achilles tires are really lightweight and can take some abuse
Pros: really lightweight
I had gotten some Achilles Desert Hawk UHP tires, they were really good for the price and held up a good while.
Pros: good for the price
If you’re looking for a good budget tire, have a look at the Achilles atr sport 2 tires. Got a set last summer and they grip awesome.
Pros: grip awesome
You can go with Achilles, on eBay, I’ve had some not bad
Pros: not bad
Achilles ATR Sport 2 aren’t too far off but I’ve only seen the Federals in photos since they are scarce here in NZ
Pros: not too far off
Cons: scarce in NZ
I ran Achilles tires on my old VW and so did my buddy, this was 10ish years ago but they were terrible back then.
Cons: terrible
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The run flat tires are terrible. They feel like they are made of concrete and the grip is very lacking.
Cons: terrible grip, concrete feel
Vehicle:
BMW
