Default Tire recommendations!

Hey everyone!

I'm currently riding around on a set of Bridgestone Potenzas with 2013 date codes, hahahaah.

I have a completely stock car, and was trying to sort out some tires for it. Right now, my two picks are the Road Hugger Gt Ultra, and the Nitto Motivo. I also considered the GT Radial Champiro UHP. Does anyone have any experience with these tires? The Bridgestones I have now still have a lot of tread, but they are older than the hills, and beginning to get rock hard. I also don't want to spend a thousand dollars on tires for a three season car.

What are you running, what did you pay, and how happy are you with them? Thanks again!

I like the Nitto 555 G2..I have ran them on a couple different cars. I bought mine from Discount Tire..245/45/17 was 150..the 315/35/17 was 243..they are a great tire for the price.

Well, to keep updated, I did some talking to Discount Tire.

Nittos - not gonna happen. Nationwide backorder.

Road Huggers - no way. Made by Nitto.

Toyo Extensas - sorry, Charlie.

Wound up ordering in a set of Barum Bravarius. So this went from a "what do you recommend" post to a "let's see how the cheapest damn thing works out" post!

And I still have to wait a week and a half for those.
