What tires do you run?

[NoHachi]

Wanli's are considered cult drift tires here in the Netherlands. Very stiff sidewalls but absolutely no grip. Maybe a good choice for the set of driftrims.

I have Pirelli P5000 drago's on my car at the moment (15x7) rims. These are horrible! They squeel like nothing you ever heard before and do so long before the actual limit of the tires (not high at al) is approached. Some sort of warning before traction loss is fine, but this is just irritating.

Given the choice my next set of tires wil be the toyo T1S's in the 195-50-15 size. At the pricepoint these are selling at now, few tires get even close. Grip in al wheather excellent, whatever some people may think. The problem with these tires is that the sidewall is not all that stiff. I think this is a compromise that toyo made willingly. U lose some of the crispness at turn in, but gain much needed comfort at the street. Then when you need to lose someone one a backroad, the grip is there to do it.
Also these are not circuit tires, you will destroy them if you heat them up to much.
The other option that you have at that pricepoint is the yokohama A539. These have poorer wet weather performance, slightly less grip, but much stiffer sidewalls. They'll hold up to the abuse of a trackday.

All the other tires on the market to day don't come close to the value for money of these two IMHO.
