I was just curious what people are using for drift tires in the States. I live in Japan currently and drift 3 or 4 times a week. It seems everyone here has a particular set of tires they almost always use in the front and a range of sizes in the rear.
I drive a 180sx with a blacktop SR. I generally use a 215/40 17 high grip Potenza in the front like S-03 or RE-01 (not available Stateside, to my knowledge). As for the back I use whatever 215 or 225 width 17 I can find in the rear. I also use 205 or 225 width 16s and 205 or 195 width 15s, when I can't find any 17s. As tires here are very expensive, I never buy tires for the rear. Just whatever I can scavenge that has a little life left.
Just curious what everyone is using.
