I dont claim to be the best at this game
I also havent made a guide before so take everything i say with a grain of salt.

Stock Tires are typically the worst.
In this case they are a worse version of the CurveMaster Street tires in the way that they are a hybrid tire that is a blend of both worlds in which they can be used for racing and drifting however i don't tend to use them as they don't provide any use.

These tires are hybrid, these have medium grip and will be hard to slip out under throttle, highly good for early game drifting as it just better than stock and maintain drifts decently however can be harder to retain in drift compared to EcoDrift tires.

These tires are drift, as said in the name. They will slip out a lot more when turning compared to the Curvemaster Street tires but aren't good for racing events as they don't have good enough handling grip. I recommend you buy these only if you feel like it as the CurveMaster Street tires are perfectly fine in chapter 1 but after that they are a must. These are better for casual drifting around than the other tires and should be used after chapter 1.

These tires are racing tires, that's all i really need to say. Buy them straight away as you get race events early on and these make them a breeze.

One side bonus if you use them for drifting however, they gain a lot more speed quicker so they can help with corner drifting however they don't hold drifts well and tend to be harder to swing out on.

These tires are hybrid tires, they are good for everything and should be used for everything. I cant really say much as they are statistically the best.

Thanks for reading, this is my first guide and im not really what sure what to put!
