If these are the most fun tires you have driven on, then you really need to treat yourself next time even more. These are not even really considered performance tires, at least not here in Japan. I know in the US they classify them as such. A decent tire, don't get me wrong at all, but step up higher next time if you really want some fun in the Fit. Even with the Fit's anemic power output an even stickier tire will put a BIGGER grin on your face.

I will say for the price they cost there in the US, pretty hard to beat. Of course I am a bit biased towards Yoks.

 

What is this tire you speak of?

 

try the Kumho Ecsta XS

Kumho Ecsta XS



best bang for the buck, right next to the hankook RS3..

 

Yoks much better street/track tire the AD08. It's my all season tire. Was tricky as can be the one morning when everywhere was nothing but ice, but they did it. I don't recommend others to take extreme summer tires into this sort of environment. haha

 

oh evil, when are you going to stop playing coy, and let us in on what your working on? probably drove to canada to pick up your JDM parts right?

 

That looks really nice.

 

Bravo! Bravo!

 

jjeleven12 - Are you thinking about getting some center caps to help keep the axle nut from rusting on the front?

You can get some electrical box caps for less than a buck a piece at home depot and paint them whatever color you like.

For our centerbore, I just used a 2" cap and tapped it in.

 

Mine has never left ON. Where did you go in ON?

 

Nice wheels & pic... nothing better than real quality wheels.
Love that 60's-70's effect, reminds me of my childhood pics.

Not too familiar with Kumho tires.... read some good reviews on the Ecsta 4x. How are they?

 

I dont think you were asking about the 4x specifically but i had those on my fit b4 i sold it and they are truly amazing...kumho's werent always great but they have stepped up their game in the past year or two.

 

Yeah I was looking at the 4x, and the ASX Kumho's, but I also thoughtThanks for sharing your experience with them. Might have to look more seriously at the Kumho's... I was leaning toward the Firestone Firehawk™ Wide Oval™ Indy 500®, but after my recent experience with Bridgestones I'd rather try the Kumho's, especially if they're putting out better tires.
