<div>It's time for new tires to replace the second set of Yoko AVS ES100s for my (non-SE-R) car and I'm discovering that it's hard to find reasonably priced GOOD tires in 14 inches now, there just aren't many choices anymore. I guess 14 inch wheels are *so* 1990s and no new cars come with them anymore (I'm glad I have 15's on my SE-R! I got the ES100s for something like $85 a tire a couple of years ago.<br>
</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I've narrowed it down to:</div>
<div>BFG g-force super sport a/s for $88 each</div>
<div>Falken Ziex ZE-512 for $69 each</div>
<div>Michelin Pilot Exalto a/s for $101 each</div>
<div>*maybe* the Falken Azenis for $100 each but with a 200 treadwear rating can I expect more than 15K miles out of them?<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Has anyone had any good/bad experience with any of these? I tend to drive somewhat aggressively and don't mind noise/rough ride. I want good traction, safe wet handling and hopefully at least 20K miles out of the tires.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I miss the days of the awesome Yoko A509s that I had or the sticky Dunlops that all cost me $70 to $90. I looked at the Dunlop Direzza but they're $126 each and that's just too high for me. I'm wondering if in a couple of years I'll even be able to find ANY 14 inch tires when I need to replace the next set.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks for any input from the good ol' SE-R list!</div>
