I can buy Gen 6 performance tires all day but can’t find anything performance wise for the Gen5 1LE.

I usually buy my Nittos off Ebay. There are a few sets on there now. Bridgestone Potenzas too.

From what I understand, there really isn't much difference between the 5th and 6th gen tire sizes. Is there?
I through the run a /40R20 in the front instead of a /35R20. Please feel free to jump in and correct me. I'm eyeing some Potenza S007 A's in 295/35R20 front and 315/35R20 rear for $1100 installed at my Discount Tire.

5th Gen are a 35 series an 6th Gen is a 30 series which cause a bit of a harsher ride. 40 series is slim pickins.

I really liked the G2's I have a new set on my car Date code late 2020, But I doubt I'll find another set. I think they perform well and they look really good, I'll probably run Pilot sports next but they are boring looking ( I know performance is more important ).

G2's were discontinued. I had a brand new set a little over a year ago I posted up here and offered at a discounted price. No one was interested so I threw them on eBay. Sold in a few days for big $$$$.

I see no reason why the Goodyear F1 Supercar 3 won't serve us well as a replacement.
