I use Hanook W300. They are performance winter tires, but you can drive them around in the summer too. Not quite as good handling as advans, but they are great in the snow and rain.

EVODan also has some winter tires he actually likes. I have blizzak ws-50's. Absolute monsters in the snow but in the dry they are useless.

how many miles do u have on them before they wear out? i only got 7k out of the advans and i rotated them too...i autocrossed a month ago but they were already beat up before then...if they hold up a lot longer and are decent in the summer too then it sounds like a good tire to me

thanks, Jason

what did the wear on the advans look like? was it all even, concentrated around the edges, or other?

i got 8k out of mine this summer, but that was with like 14 autocrosses, 2 time trials, and 1 time at flashlight drags, plus my normal spirited daily driving.

u can see them if ud wanna meet up one night this week but before i rotated them the both front tires outer side were bald and the rest of the tread is thin all around front and back

I had 20,000 miles on my 2004 Hanooks. My 2006 EVO, I switch them. Hanook's for the winter, OEM Advans for the summer. I only have 11,000 miles on the 2006 EVO at the moment...

I've been running Pirelli P-Zero Nero all seasons all year round. For the kind of driving I do, they're great. They're good in the snow and the grip isn't too bad either for an all season. I think I got about 22,000 miles out of the first set.

I'd second the vote for these. I know of a couple of WRX's that run them locally and they are happy with them.

Hey guys have a Perrin 25mm rear sway brand new in the box, comes with the
stout mounts 160 if we meet up locally. Anyone interested?

what kind of tire pressures do you urn for daily driving? if the pressure is too low the tires will cup and eat the outer edges like crazy. the stock pressure of 32 front, 29 rear is way too low in my opinion and can cause wear like you described.

i like to run mine at 36 front, 32 rear, and rotate the tires front to back every oil change, or even more often if i am feeling up to it.

That tire seems comparable to the P Zero's. When I was shopping for tires the first time, I honestly just searched every thread on here and came up with the Pirelli's. I gave them a try. I think I may have heard some decent things about the Bstones too.

alright thanks ill prob end up goin for these tires...havent seen too many complaints on them and its a decent price for a good tire from what i can see
