QC 2010 tire suggestions please

Hey guys !

I'm looking for tires for my 2005 RX-8 with original mags (225/45R18).

I was looking around in the thread and found some threads about that but I felt they looked a little outdated.

So well, as the title implies : I'd like some suggestions for good summer tires.


THANKS !

depends on your price point, and what you use your car for...

daily driver? weekend autocrosser? HPDE? aggressive street driving? do you drive like a grandma? etc

from there you will likely still have a ton of options/questions, haha

I just put on BF Goodrich KDW2
225-45-18
Can't beat the value.
They're a bit noisier than the RE-050A-pp tires I had but the grip is great, they look awesome and they cost 40% less!

I'm running on Dunlop Direzza Star Specs this year and I LOVE them!

Excellent dry and wet traction, very grippy in the corners. Definitely buying them again.
