i have been looking for a streetable tire for my 8 inch rears for gizmo...
i found dunlop had 245s in a 15inch sizing...big bucks 350 plus per tire(lap dance, possibly included)....dot approved now i have found an importer for avons in the 245 15 sizing....dot approved 288 apiece(not including lap dance) but i have a aquaintance that imports skylines from japan....he is will check if 245 15s are available in the yokahama line up, but not imported to the North American market....so i am hoping for some alternatives...and hoping for better pricing too..... |

I have used Avons that I bought from Tire Rack, but in 205/50/15s. A very decent tire, especially for the money. Only used them for the street. I also have the Dunlops (also from Tire Rack) in 225/50/15 that I have used in DEs. They aren't race rubber, but they have lasted well beyond my expectations. My recommendation would be the Dunlops.
