What's up members, I'm a new member out in LA with an '05 G35 Coupe 6MT. I'm hitting the 25k mile mark on my car and its about time to change the tires. Any advice in terms of size, brand, website? I've checked out thetirerack.com, and they had a set of Kumhos that looked pretty good at stock size for the rear tires. The front tires were hard to find though. I'm looking for something reasonable that'll last me till the end of my lease, about 12-15k more. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

All I'll say is steer clear of Falken FK451 GRB's. They wear incredibly fast and are so prone to wheel spin, even with VDC.

I'll be in the market for new tires soon too, so any advice would be great.

it depends on what you want out of the tire... if its a daily driver?? drifter?? street racer?? life of tire?? all season tire???? i know a couple buddies even myself are running the toyo proxes4 on their coupes i just have them on my fronts though... for great traction i am using the goodyear eagle f1's in the rear... also bf goodrich has some great sticky tires as well... but again its all depends on what you are looking to get out of the tire!!

I love my Toyo's! Picked mine up for $860. Much better than stock rubber.
