Ok, so I'm trying to pinch a penny and I've looked at some really cheap tires, and from the reviews, the main complaint is they are a bit noisy and have a hum. The tires I preordered are at discountire awaiting pick-up, but I may return them and get the cheapies. The difference is $538 installed to $382.2 installed. I don't AutoX and only rarely do I go over 100mph.
What I already ordered: http://www.onlinetires.com/products/vehicle/tires/riken/245%252F40-18+riken+riken+raptor+z+++93w.html And I know they hold up to high speeds. And had a set on my old MZ3.
What I'm curious about: http://www.onlinetires.com/products/vehicle/tires/sunny/245%252F40-18+sunny+sn3800+97w.html
Thoughts....
Cheap tires.
Cheap tires.

I've used the Raptors (on my daughter's old Beretta) and they were pretty good...don't know about "Sunny" brand, but tires aren't something to cheap out on.

Well I know know the Raptors are legit. They are made by Michelin and I had them on my MZ3 until I traded it and just moved them over to my A4 and they still performed great. My thoughts were more so on the Sunny's. I know tires aren't something you go cheap on, but I've got to get the winters off soon.

What the heck are you driving these days man Good to see you around still!
I have Kumho Ecsta AST's on mine. My friend had them on his STI. I think I paid $70 a piece for them and they have all the load, speed, and tread ratings that the speed6 can handle (except 130mph H rating). On the onlinetires.com website they start at $60 and the WRX is listed as a sample vehicle. Might be another option for you to check out...
