that kind of low for a 315... |
ya haha..way too low
|
ok so now its down to KDs or GSD3s?
|
Overall GSD3 is a better tire and Treadwear is not so bad.
Add $20 and get them |
i dont even know why im asking this. i know the answers to these questions cuz ive gone over them many times before.
i wanted sumis cuz i just wanna get some wheels and tires and be rollin. but i always go by the notion of why bother making your car faster if youre gonna get **** tires? theres no use in having 500 hp if your tires cant hook so spend the money. i always used that to sell tires, why not go by the same theory myself. today i was on the freeway playin with my boss and his R1. i had it up to 135, which is the fastest ive been in this car, and as the freeway started curving i really got worried. my current tires suck, and i was worried about losing traction. they held fine, but it made me realize, i'd love some GSD3 :D KD vs. GSD3: KDs probably have better dry straight line traction, but GSD3s have better handling and probably better wet traction. im goin with those. |
Good choice.
|
holy **** it better be a good tire. $1100 with tax and shipping. another 130 if i want road hazard. ARGH!
|
hmm...nittos would be 750 total for DRs in the rear and regular 555s up front. thats more reasonable and would still perform for me.
|
nittos 315
|
Good thing you thought about this AFTER you quit your tire place hahaha...
where are you getting them from? I say go with the gsd3s. |
caleb if you want the look go with 11" wheels and 315s. however if you want to be the fastest and hook the best, go with the 275 Nittos or a small drag radial. the 315s are hard to spin with a bolt on motor. i can smoke 1st gear with the nittos and i hit 2nd it just grabs, as opposed to any other street tire, 2nd and 3rd gear are just smoke. im glad i went with 315s cause they look better but at the track i would want a 15" or 16" wheel with a 255 or so cause the 315s are NOT for racing.
|
well thats my problem, i want it to look badass AND hook. and yes i know, that much rubber gripping will actually hurt.
in that respect, the 315 GSD3s should be perfect. time to start saving... |
oh **** brah. i forgot about my 355!!!!! and holy crap, dude this works out great. the difference from sumi to gy is like 500 bucks...thats exactly what i was planning on asking for my block and parts!!! dude!!!!!!!!!
