Essenza Type R's.

Made by Goodyear. H-Rated (smoother ride).

I have had mine for only one summer, but really like them. They are very inexpensive but very good.

where did you find the 711s. I think the cheapest i found them was $412. & i've looked at the Essenzas, just haven't really heard anything about them.

i was lookin' on tirerack at the Kumho Ecsta ASX's & the 711s. That's what I'm tryin' to decide between. The ASX's are like a little over $400 & they're all season. The 711's are around $380. Both include shipping & road hazard program. Are the 711s any good what so ever in the snow & has anyone heard anything on the ASXs? & also... should i get the road hazard program?

they dont make those anymore... instead they make the proxes t1-s which is a great tire. about the only price i found on the size you're looking for is about $190 a tire.




Check out my build thread!

Yeah they still make Toyo Proxes FZ4's because i work at Belle Tire and we still have them in stock and can still order them if we need em. and there about 140 a tire at normal cost but they cost me like 105 a tire

Fuzion ZRi

Sticky, great handling, Bridgestone quality and technology with a budget price. Not much for snowy driving, but you already said that wasn't a concern. Plus, you're asking for a budget performance tire, meaning any of the answers probably aren't going to be superior snow tires.
