I need new tires! What's everyone running these days?

[TrueBlue02058]

Looks like a great tire for the price, different Tire and application but I ran Hercules Terra Trac A/T in a 275/70R18 Size on my 08 F150 and they were a Great Tire ?

Last fall I placed the Hercules Avalanche X-Treme LT on my F-150 2013 crew and found they worked very well for me. It is what got me into the brand. A local private tire shop 5 minutes away can supply good prices on par with the big city shops which is a win - win.

I have pirelli’s on my bmw 430 hate run flats but decent tires

I have staggered TA’s on the mustang love them

I’ve run on the Firehawks for the past 2 seasons. Good all around tire. Reasonably priced. Max is on his 2nd set with some autocross runs, so he may have some additional feedback. I will likely pick up another set this year. No hesitation recommending them!

 

[05 gt 5spd]

Just installed a new set of rubber on my 2005 . Have been through 2 sets of Pirelli , a set of Falken’s and now on to the third set of Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+

 

[Ohtobbad]

I ordered new set of tires, got two seasons out of last ones,
still about half the tread, but likely hockey pucks, this spring.
Hoping they are here before dyno run

 

[Mcdavis]

I'm on the AS3+ as well. Seem pretty good.

 

[67 AGAIN]

Goodyear F1Supercar on the 06 and Michelin Pilot Super Sport on the 15.
Happy with both.

 

[thundr]

Will need new ones soon. Considering a square set up. I have been happy with the M Super Sports. May go with M Cup 2, sizes are limited tho.

I have been hearing tires may be hard to come by this year.

How many KM do you get out of your tires and did you track it?

 

[albertmac]

on my 1988 after the fall run i put bf goodrich t/a on i had ordered them but took about a month to get the old tires were good year eagles we checked the build date on them they were put on in 1992 gess not enough seat time lol

Normally I change every spring, I have not tracked in last two years, might get out this year.
Time depends on track sessions, but season 6-7000km
if local only running might get8-10k without track time.

I normally change every spring before dyon run, so fresh not great in rain
so atleast new before we go lol.

Remember mine are spec'ed to car, so about half the tread of normal sport cup 2 tire.

Ok thanks I believe the ones on the Mach are the same. I was looking and it looks like around 3200 a set is that what you normally pay. I may switch to the sport cup 4s I believe that’s what they are it’s one step down and keep the ones that are on there if a ever track or drag it?

I found a bit of a deal, but last set I bought at ford were $3000
they ordered wrong ones ( idiots) but I had melt fronts at track and took 2 weeks to get
so I put them on untill I could get right ones.

I don't figure I have to mod my car, so tires are my mod money ever year

 

[Mike 2021]

I hear ya there lol

 

[Ohtobbad]

Well my drive today is proof I need new sneakers.
Although still cool day on roads.

50% tread still on tires, but over 2 years old.
On my way to meet guys for run, leaving lights,
2nd gear 7000rpm guessing 60mph ( wasn't looking)
Car broke loose and weeeeee sideways we go
Fun, but a little less when not expecting it LOL.

I need fresh rubber, better traction

 

[Jkeithnb]

Gonna run fast ya need good sneakers lol

 

[thundr]

Hopefully you can get some. I heard there are shortages. I need to start looking too.

Ordering a set for backup this spring knowing there’ll likely be supply and delivery delays. Hate to think of going back to stock skinnies if I lose one!
