So what should I get to replace my 17" runflats?

Plan on doing some autox, but mainly just spirited street driving.

 

Hows it's going? you might try the Tire Rack web site,pretty informative.They have a tire comparison section thats not bad,good luck anything but those runflats :smile:

 

My faves on value-packed tires:

1.) Kumho MX - sidebite like crazy (when warm), noisy
2.) Parada 2 - great forward bite, awesome aesthetic
3.) ES100 - least sidebite of the trio, best in wet

 

Ive had both, and I like the Spec2's better. :smile:

 

Many of the MCS owners in my area also are happy with the Bridgestone Potenza Pole Position S-03 in 215/45-17 or 215/40-17 but it is more costly about $160+ each.

Both the Parada Spec-2 and ES100 are available in stock 205/45-17 and 215/40-17 sizes. The Parada Spec-2 looks great but is a little noisier than the ES100.

I have the ES100 for daily use and have been happy with them. Works well dry and wet, it's wearing well for me and I do take them to the track/autocross.

You might call and talk to Alex@tirerack about the differences between the ES100 and Parada Spec-2 for your use. Let us know what you decide and how it works for you.

Will update as soon as I decide. This is something I am planning on doing in the spring. I have noticed a lot of owners going for the ES100 and was wondering why? The Prada-2 looks to be a better overall tire to me.
