I usually run 17's on the street, but before a recent AutoX, I decided to throw on my stock rims with some new AVSi's 225/50/15.

Man! Once broken in, these things stick like hell!! You'll love them!

I've heard that they don't last too long.. but hey at $74/a pop, I'd be willing to tear through a few sets..

I've hear good things about the sp8000's too. they are a bit more expensive, and will last a bit longer, but you won't get quite the performance as from the yokohamas.

Good luck,
Jack


it looks like I'm about to step up and buy my co-workers 90 M3 w/ 80k...it is nearly flawless...I just don't think the tires are what should be on the stock rims.

He is running Yokohama A-509 in 225-50 15...I seem to recall the A509 as being a step below the AVS-i, but maybe it lasted longer...what do you guys run on the stock rims?

P-zeros? SP-8000? Yoko A022A or AVS-i?

Thanks in advance.

john
