Suggestion on tires - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Can't say much about the treadlife yet, but the Kumho 4X are probably the best 15" all-season right now. Very good grip wet and dry, super responsive, well priced. Mine are 195/55r15. I haven't run them in summer (and probably won't. R-comps are too much fun), so I don't know how well they do at temperature.

OK, all great suggestions.

I went ahead and got 2 of the Konig Candy in red. Ordered from Discounttiredirect.com on monday.. arrived last night. too excited

I talked to Jeff at microimage and we settled on a pair of 195/55, Honetly I cannot remember what tires we decided on, It was either hercules Raptis vr1, pegasus Minos or the Landsail LS-288

We talked back about each one and then decided on the one that we agreed was best. anyway, they wont get here til saturday though =(

Gonna be running 2 rota GT3 and 2 Konig Candy rims for a while.. wont be able to get pics til sunday maybe.. next weekend at the latest

New tires are finally here. Now I just need to find time mounting and balancing them. hopefully tomorrow maybe.

some pictures, I NOW remember that we agreed on the Falkens. Gonna look either badass or stupid to have 2 different rims for now.
