Hello people of civicland,
I need to get me some tires... My Khumo 711's are god awful and now one of them has a flat spot, so its time to replace. I?m not looking for anything spectacular, but I need something that will keep my wheels attached to the ground, I would like to spend $80-100$ each. Any suggestions?

Toyo Proxis, try and find a sale at tirerack.com and what not. There are dealers on ebay as well believe it or not. Type in your tire size wanted and they all pop up. DONT TYPE A BRAND THOUGH.
I say Toyo's, Or try and pick up some Yokohamas.. Keep in mind what eric said, apply that to these brands too. |

me and dan can give first hand testimonies for the azenis.. IMO i love em.. never done me wrong.. obviously you have to just be more aware you have more tire on the tround less physical tread so it's almost like driving on slicks sorta

Dude ive prolly had just about every tire out there and for the price and durability, i would go with yokohama evs100's. These tires r badass in rain and they stick to the ground. Also they wear perfectly. ive got about 15,000 miles on them and have gone maybe half way through the tread if that. I love them and wouldnt go with anything else, and i only spent $60 for them a piece on tirerack.com.

If you want an all weather tire i would go with toyo proxies, if you dont drive the car in the snow or winter weather, I would get some falken azenis. Only problem with them is that they are like ski's in winter weather. No traction at all.
