Tire fitment 90 200TQ

[Mike LaRosa]

had kumho's on my old mercedes,  awefull tire.... 
first corner i almost crashed.. sidewall i think was
paper thin...

dunlop always good luck with those...

bridgestone are on the wife's lexus,  i'd like to
think we just have a bad set,  loudiest thing i've
ever heard...

your gonna laugh,  but i just put cheap uniroyals on
the beater wagon (93 100 csqa).  good tire for the
price, bought 50.- fairly quiet decent grip, not an
autocross tire by any stretch.  but a good all around
tire.
