sport tires question

[Flieger]

Hi, I have a 1983 E21 320i 5 speed overdrive Getrag. The car has a rebuilt M10 and brakes. The car is in factory specification inside and out. I have 13 inch factory alloy wheels and have an opportunity to purchase some new rubber. I can choose between Yokohama, Kumho, and Bridgestone. What brand do you prefer? The car will be my year-round daily transportation but I live in sunny Southern California. Also, I take it out for some long, swift canyon drives so I want some good grip.

Thanks! :-)

I've had good luck with Yokohama EVS 100s and they are cheap. That said, I am running Toyo Proxes 4 on my E30 in 205/55/15. Not sure what is available in 13" for the E21s.

Ditto on the Yokohama EVS's. I'm running 16" on my 89 Cabrio and they perform excellently.
