All Season Tire Question
Hey everyone, I am upgrading my rims and tires from the 18's black steel wheels of terror on my LS and I have a question about Tires. I have the stock 20 rims already in my possesion, I just need an opinion on a good all season performance tire. what is your opinion on a tire that is not going to lose all its tread in a matter of 15,000 miles like the summer Pzero's.
Thank you for your input

Continental Extreme Contact DWS....have a really high treadwear rating, but still considered a high-performance all-season. Lot's of people on here have them, and love them.

The Toyo Proxes4 is exactly what you are looking for. An excellent riding tire, quiet, all-season and W-Rated |

Like I said before, these are the all season tires I just put on my SS. Paid $1204.00 insalled. Not too many miles on them yet but in 30 degree weather they rock over the P/Zeros.
