I'm presented with a few options on picking out a suitable tyre.

I'd prefer a all season, asymetrical tyre.

255/35/18

I can get (priced up so far...)

Kumho Ecsta KU19's (Asymetrical) - $260 e

Kumho Ecsta KU31's (Directional) - $250 e

Yokohama V103's - $500 e

Bridgestone RE050A (245/35/18-3 week wait) - $630 e

Dunlop Eagle F1's (directional) - $500 e

Hankook Ventus K103 - $287

Hankook Ventus K107 (asymetrical) - $350

Pirelli Dragon - $350



Now car is daily, I dont plan on doing motorsport or goto drags with these rims. I currently run the KU19's at the front and i cant fault them for the price i paid.
Iv had experience with the Bridgestones, came stock with the car - they are probably one of the best tyres iv experienced... but 255 are pretty pricey.

I like tyres with a SOLID side wall.

any other suggestions?

Don't forget to check load rating.

Bridgestone 050A are a Quality tyre with a solid sidewall but they do come at a premium price.

What about some Pirelli's also a quality tyre not sure if the have 255/35/18 though.

pretty sure they all exceed 89

Im looking for new tyes as well
Currently running Bridgestone RE050A - 215 45R17 87W
prices of 10/10/08
Tyrepower manurah $400 each
bridgestone mandurah $375 each

The 245/35/18 whats the diffence between that and the 215 45R17 87W i have?
18 inch?

Eagle F1's had them on my first car and will always have them they are great tyres for all conditions.

yes, and more width and not so tall side wall


Ringing around, I think the Hankook Ventus K107 for $350 is a pretty killa deal. might go with them

For the profile you're after yeh that's a good price! Reasonable tyre too, ran them for a little while.

Yeah they're good tyres.

Good price too.
