I had put on a set of Toyo Proxes 4..those were good..had no issues and almost seemed to grab better than the pirelli's.
The conti's were never in stock, and I wouldn't recommend a truck tire for the ss (spec x) |

I live in the mid atlantic mountains of North Central WV, I want to go Nitto invo but I have flirted with getting Hankook Ventus ST RH06 all seasons for the back. Since I have the stock 18" BFG tires and alloy wheels I might run those from Oct to April in the winter since they are All season. then just get Nitto's or some other summer tire for the spring, summer and early fall. Looking at Nitto Invo, Hankook Ventus V12, Pirelli P-zeros. anyone care to rate these in order and give there opinions on them?

If you actually looked at all the reviews on the Prada's there are multiple recommendations from Charger and Challengers as well. I got them because the Conti DSW's never seem avalible. They are great tires. My only complaint is the cornering on them isnt are not really a performance tire. Ride noise and ride comfort are great. Handle great in the rain and are not as bad as the PZeros when cold. Ive had them on for about 1000 miles now.

Oldbie that nobody knows

Best tires for tread life for this car are apparently the Continental DWS Extremes.
If you want to do good in straight line performance, get Nitto drag radials. |

My Firehawk Indys have lasted over 33k miles and I still have another 3000 miles at least but I don't drive hard, do burnouts, peel out or any of that on a daily basis like some people on here might. Not noisy tires and ride is pretty smooth. I strongly recommend them.

Lol, I had been doing some digging here on the forum. I've been researching like crazy to figure out what route to go with my tires since my P-Zero's are bald in the rear. I'm at 35,100 miles too.
I wish I could get the Michelins in my size since I hear they stick to the ground better and will last longer. I think the best route might be to get 2 more rear wheels that I can run 275/40/20's at all four corners. Shouldn't be any clearance issues in the front right? From what I've read it should be fine. I've considered the Continental summer tires, Firehawk Indy 500's, BFG and the Goodyear Super car tires or whatever they're called. But it seems like the P-Zero's might be the best. I can get them on sale too at $182.69 a tire. Anyone have any other suggestions? |
