Tires YOKOHAMA or NITTO
The car handles exceptionally well with them. The West Virginia turn pike is easily handled at 95mph. Downfall- tires need to be rotated sooner then normal and they always run thin way before their due date.
I can say that the nitto motivo doesn't suck. Tires for my wrx are always listed as 'ultra high performance' and rarely do much more than 30k miles. These are listed as 60K tires, they perform better than both bridgestone potenza (summer) and nitto's neogens
After reading some reviews and looking at pictures of stretched tires in different sizes, I purchased four Nitto Neo Gens in 205/45/ZR17.
I threw on my 4th set of Nitto Gens... Ugh, I love these thangs... Ran 25k with -3.5deg camber and had nothing but even wear on the tires. Hence why I bought another set.
on my second set. i love em. they are super quiet, grippy and soft but dont wear too fast and very comfy.
I love mine, I've got 30k on my current set. Only complaint is they get pretty loud as they wear down. Great on snow and rain.
Neo Gens are good tires. Good for camber wear and they are not directional so you can flip them.
The front wheels are 18x8 with 245/45/18 Nitto 555s and the rears are 18x9.5 with 285/45/18 Nitto 555r drag radials.
I had 205-5015 khumos 712 esctas on 15x7 and they where wonderfull now I have yokohama YK420 195-50-15 they are fair and grip just fine for H rated tires...
Have nitto neogen on now and do not like them. Pirelli , bridgestone Potenzas, nitto invos and michelin pilot ss on my previous cars. I will stick with michelin on the next purchase.
