Thread: Tires - New owner of 2004 SE-R spec V

Hey all,

I just bought a 2004 spec v and will be picking it up on wednesday. It's black and beautiful but needs some summer tires. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for affordable summer tires. I want to do autocross over the summer as well so something that's more for racing would be best.

Thanks!

bfg kdw 2 thats da name of the tire lol

pretty cheap also

If you have 2 sets of rims (1 for summer and 1 for winter) then I would get the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec. It's a really sticky tire for a street tire while still being able to handle rain well. Tire Rack even tested the tires themselves and gave them a very good review. Check around on Tire Rack and Discount Tire Direct. There have been plenty of people who posted about all kinds of tires. Check out the surveys decide for yourself.

Ok thanks, I'll try those sites out and check those suggestions.

+1 for the dunlop direzza star specs but make sure its the star spec, the dirreza's alone suck.

Welcome Aboard. Yokohama Advan Neova ADO7 Or AO48 provide good performance in autocross.

+1, but they are more expensive than the Direzza Star Specs and they don't do as well in the wet conditions. I liked the Yokohama Advan Neova ADO7's until they got hot because they got slick. The new Yokohama Advan Neova ADO8's are supposed to be better that the older AD07's.

+1 on the Advans getting greasy when pushed. Ran em on a spec E30 and they worked amazingly well on autoX when the runs were shorter, but on a track they got really greasy after a couple of hard laps. Ultimate low temp tire tho for sure.
