piss the khumos offf straight away, i had a set that lasted less than 10,000 k's

the GIII's are good, and so are the a539's i guess it comes down to price, also try to tlak to a knowlegeble person at the tyre place and see what they suggest. have u looked at pirelli p6000's? ive had them on my rolla but in a 185/60/14 and they were pretty grippy and tyre wear is quite good to.

I had GIII's and they lasted 19000k's.
Now i have A539's and they aren't as grippy (maybe 20% less), but should last alot longer. I used them at a track day recently, and they were good, but not as good as the GIII's.

I paid $180 each for my 225/60/R15 GIII's, and $125 for my 215/60/R15 A539's.

I agree with Big T and say- get Falken ST-115 for $130, if they are that cheap. Great grip with great life. Damn that's cheap!
