NEW TIRES - WHAT TO GET???
I have $2k (including install) to drop into for some new tires.
I really didn't like the way the stock Pirelli's performed and now that they have worn out I NEED new ones ASAP for the summer. Can you guys recommend me what you would buy and why? Thanks so much!

 Curious as to opinions. Of course, I'm way more limited since I need 21s

For every day driving, I just went with Hankook V12. Wish I would have done this a long time a go. The car drives and rides completely different now. The ride is much smoother, and handles much better without bouncing around.

In the same boat. But I think I'm going to hold off for a bit and see if I can snap up some nurburgrings with tires.

For highway and some spirited driving I love my Toyo Proxes4. They grip and handle really well. They're priced well too!

Also, these appear to be "directional" tires. So, as I understand it, they cannot even be rotated side to side - likr the staggered Pirellis. Correct?
