they are very noisy, and under braking the rear end wants to move around a lot. I drove my moms 03 cts with the mxm4's and they seem to be very grippy and I love the brakes on the thing. The coopers on the honda seem gripy but I have been driving with bald tires so long I dunno what a good tire feel...

I made a tire mistake COOPER ZEON ZPT

Ever taken tires back the next day if you are horribly unsatisfied?
I bought some cooper zeon zpt’s today for a total cost of $411.16 and I think they are worse than my no tread Michelins. Any suggestions other than a lesson to learn?

Thanks to everyone for making my first event great! I really enjoyed the day and cannot wait for my next solo. The day for me started off with a 71.501+DNF where I went on the wrong sides of the last slalom but after that I worked my way down from 69.255 to 64.602. The posted 61.354 in my car was ra...

First I would like to fit a good tire for the interstate on the stock rims.

I would also like to find a good wheel and tire combo for my cornering thrills though. What makes a good wheel vs a bad one in performance? and the same for tire.
