I cannot wait to get them. I have ktuner 19.5 pdi and sometimes I push the car and it doesn't go because the tires are worthless .

stock tires suck they are just the worst when you push them i got the Indy 500 before summer so i got them for 104 a tire and im super impressed by the performance and i have a stage 1 Vit tune and never struggle to put power down

Sorry, noob here. What do you mean by load rating?

they can take more weight so the regular ones are rated for a max load of 1356lbs per tire and the XL are rated for have a max load of 1521lbs per tire more so how much it can hold before it is dangerous like if you were carrying hundreds of pound around you want a tire with a high load rating

Looks like it's being discontinued, maybe because it is an old model (googling turns up a press release introducing it in 2005). But the reviews on Tirerack are good as well as forum reviews.

Nice thank you these seem like a good option to try out here in Texas and cheap ones at that

Any recommendations for good all-season tires? No specific budget, as long as they are reasonable and last a decent amount of miles.

Stock all seasons lasting over 30k for me.

Do you find that they perform adequately? On this forum I see them getting bashed constantly

Predictable behavior. Not horrible but far from great. They suck in the snow and ice.

Costco had a deal on bridgestone potenza re980as. 637$ installed after taxes. I did push them pretty hard. Got some understeer when pushing hard in the wet but it was superior grip compared to stock all seasons. I corrected and they grabbed right away. I couldn’t break traction in the dry. No wheel spin no mater how hard I step on it in 1st/2nd. And I don’t know what kind of speeds and angles I need to lose my front while cornering. The rear stepped out before I lost my fronts.

They are a little bit worse on mpg at the beginning (might of been all the hot weather at fault). But after 1k miles I’m almost getting better mpg than with stocks. These tires are louder on abrasive pavement than stocks. But they are less noisy than stocks on a smooth pavement.

I have the summer eagle F1s for summer. I just purchased the Michelin a/s 3+ now for the fall and winter.

The F1s are nice for hard, spirited driving in the warm weather. At about 20k they have 40% tread left. They have pretty amazing grip for tires that came with the car.

The 3+'s have been great so far. Definitely arent as responsive as the F1s but pretty close. And they handle amazingly in the rain.

The Michelins go on sale at Costco this week.

I can't wait for my stock ties to die so I can justify these to my wife. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tire...ar=2018&autoModel=Civic Si Sedan&autoModClar=

Mine came with the car by accident, as the '19 Si seemed to get all around. It was cool that I got them, but I've hit a couple of things on the road apparently, and now my rear left and front right tires deflate significantly faster than they should in other circumstances, specifically the former. I got it patched at America's Tire and they got the screw out, but it still has trouble.

Now that I'm nearly 14k miles iin with them and given the amount of tread you stated, I figured I could go up until Black Friday at the latest given the amount of times I have to put air back into these.

The Pilot Sport 4S? If so, that's the tire that I want but never knew they go on sale. If those are the ones, shoot I might just get them this week.
