The Tire Tech section contains general tire information and information on OEM tires.
Many of the aftermarket tires in the original FAQ are no longer made or widely recommended so it makse more sense to build this page from scratch. A few very brief (or empty) example reviews of aftermarket tires are included below. When adding a new tire, please follow the same layout/template for organizing this information to maintain consistency (order the models alphabetically nested within alphabetically-ordered brands). If you have used a given tire ON YOUR NSX (not your Accord, FD, Corolla, etc) and endorse it for that application, add your NSXPrime username to the alphabetical list of endorsers.

Potenza RE01R

[BJ]Good tire. Works well on track (good lap times for a street tire) with good feedback, but becomes vague as the tires start to reach the wear indicators. Decent in the rain.[/BJ]

Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec

One of the best Bang/Buck tires on the market, the Z1 Star Spec has proven to be one of the most popular high performance street tires on the market. Delivering almost top level performance for a fraction of the cost. Great tire, good communicative tire noise, and predictable.

Azenis RT615

This is a very popular tire for those looking for maximum dry performance from a (non-R-compund) street tire. Compared to OEM tires dry traction is improved while wet traction declines, with similar (read: short) treadlife.

Azenis RT615K

Identical in appearance to the RT615, the “K” has a revised tread compound with more communicative feel and audible feedback. ~1-1.5 seconds faster per lap than the 615, the “K” was introduced to keep the Falken Azenis brand back in the ballpark of the newer and faster Street tires offered by other manufacturers.

Eagle F1 GS D3

This is a very popular tire for those looking for an OEM replacement. Buyers note that the treadwear and wet traction was enhanced over the stock tires at a reasonable price. Dry handling characteristics are very similar to stock tires. This tire won a recent comparison test of eleven top-of-the-line tires in Car and Driver. It is the OEM tire for the Ferrari F430.

Advan Neova AD07

I have about 1,000+ miles on these tires and feel that they offer excellent traction, cornering, and Braking. They also do well on wet surfaces also.

Advan Neova AD08

About ~1 second faster per lap than the AD07, the AD08 has proven to be one of the fastest tires in Time Attack events. Great for street or track.
