Rough Riding Rims & Tires

[bruce95fmla]

Yea that's what i have on my 17's right now and u tlak about rough ridin'!!!! Road Noize and all that shiz... Sometimes it's not as bad, but other timez i just want to bust my ear drums and turn up the radio!!!!! LOL!!! Funny thing when i had 18's on my lowered Mazda 929 it was the smoothest ridin thing !!!! And we hacked the springs!!! KUMHO'S Suck!!!! I'll rant bout dat!!! I love Falkens!!!!

Ok .. you made a bad comparison.. Your 929 is a Luxury car, so I am pretty sure the ride will be different from that of your protege. The chassis of the 929 is more than likely stiffer and there would also be more sound deadening in the car so the actually shock of you hitting bumps would not be fealt as harsh as in our Protege's. So you can't blame the tire.. try blaming the driver for hitting all the dang bumps in the road, lol.

Asylum. You will appreciate those khumo's when you push your car to the limit. --or near it-- That's when you will love them.
I used to push mine through the twisties in Bear Mountain hills, and I loved them.

I like Falken's,pricey,but i do. I'm gettin ready to buy some Nankings. Hope they do up ok!!!! I like their price!!!!! ROFL!!!!!

As cheap as they are my Nankangs are incredible. For a set of tires that you can get for under $400 in 18s they are absoultey awesome. They handle great and so far have shown very little tire wear.

Yea i love the price I'm gettin' em' for!!!! How long have u had yours??? Hopefully they will be good to me!!!!!!!!

[McCorkle]

where'd you buy them??
i can't seem to find them in the Frozen Tundra.
Who's one of their distributors? (ie. Bridgestone distribs Kumho)

I'm trying to find rims and tires for like 1200CDN... so 900-950US... heard kumhos blow.. so i'll look for another alternative

I'm gonna be buying my other two off of E-bay!! I still can't believe i scored the other two Nankangs free!! And its only gonna cost me 20 bucks to mount and balance them!!!
