Yeah any one who drives a pimped out camry is my biotch. Are those tires and rims of more value than the car itself??

depends on what your criteria for a "good" tire are.

"as good as nitto?" :lmfao:

seriously though, i've heard the MX's are good. i had the ecsta 712's on my gsr and they were one of the worst tires i've ever had.

for my gsr i wasnt too picky about tires, so i just went for the middle of the road choices from yokohoma, bridgestone, and dunlop.

Prime example of why HAN membership has dwindled...because of half wits like that.

Anyone in here is going to bitch and gripe about how 18's aren't performance worthy. This may be a more appropriate question for one of the other forums. What kind of tires were you using previously? Are you looking for a grippy tire or a longer tread life?

I like my MX's. A little noisy but that's the only complaint I have with them.
