Interesting Tire Review - Car and Driver

review

Just found this review after searching for better pricing on Falken RT-615's. Discount used to have them for $144 (225/40/18), and now the price is over $200!

It seems the best valve is the Hankook Ventus V12 Evos, ranked 2nd and priced around $120 (225/40/18).

I thought you guys might like the article

Thanks for the link! I'm needing tires ASAP. I'll use this review and Goumba's review and probably roll with the Hankooks.

The Evos are the hot ticket tire right now.

I'm just now looking to replace my stock wheels/tires on my 98.5 SVT. I have done no suspension mods. I want a larger sized wheel/tire on there to fill the big gap you see around the wheel well, but don't want to cause any rubbing and don't want wheels sticking out. Will 18" wheel/tires rub on a stock suspension SVT?

It depends on what width/ratio you pick. Also, wheel offset will plap a factor. Most people go with 225/45/18, any wider than 225, anf you may have issues. On wheel offset, i belive most go for 42-45. Either way, you may still need to roll the fender lips in.
