I have and use Nitto nt555's. I have always been happy and impressed with them. They get good traction and last. I would really like to try out the BFgoodrich KDW 2's those things look awesome but cost alot more than the nittos. I beleive I have about 8000 miles on the nittos and they barely look used. good luck though

always used michelin sport pilots, great grip, good treadwear for a performance tire

for street tires the best i have had are kumho ecstas. they suck d*ck for drag racing but for the street they are real good.

i want somethign that will work moderately well at the track without going over to a DR, i was able to cut 2.0's with my stock tires, i am happy with that.....michelins are out of my price range, i really like that one new BFG with the "new tread pattern" but they dont make one in a 275 for a 17" wheel

Sumitomo HTRZII for $120 to $140 each depending on size. When you burn rubber you wont even think twice or feel guilty
