Could be free tires!

I have Hankook H727s but I think my next set will be the new General AltiMax RT43. Tirerack tested the Generals with three other different brands and they liked the Altimax the best.

*UPDATE* sorry not my thread.

Well, I ended up going for the General AltiMAX RT43
So far so good! It's been a few thousand KM so far and no problems.Ride seems slightly better. |

Oh.. For me. It is the 2nd time I'm running Yokohama s.drive 195/55r15.
I've had my first set when I bought the car. And the last 3 years I've driven on some hankook h725 or something. |

Anyone ever tried running a set of 205/50/R15 Yokohama R1R's? Was thinking about picking up a set for my 15x7 RPF1's. How was the handling and ride comfort? Is it a noisy tire?

Those are the ones. I guess these will work fine for me even though the treadwear isn't that great due to the softer tire compound.

Check out this review:
http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...xes-r1r-page-4 Doesn't sound too good. Plus, the tread pattern would probably result in absolutely terrible straight line tracking at highway speeds. |

I'm about to get new tires myself and aiming towards the the General Tire Altimax HP or the RT43. Any suggestions? Looking to order them from Discount Tire. Thanks.

The kuhmo x4 were great tires even at speeds over 130mph. I did go back to my falken 912s, but that was mainly to reduce wheelspin.

Does speed rating matter? Like the General RT43 has a speed rating of T and H, which is better? The Hankook Optimo 727 has T rating. I'm aiming towards the RT43 H, however discount tires doesn't have them yet at least.
