Best street tires ? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

tatsandcats · 01-30-2021, 05:39 PM

Really can't decide what to get.. am in between:

Pirelli P-Zero All Season Plus (50,000 mile warranty)
Pirelli P-Zero
Nitto 555g2
Nitto Motivo (60,000 mile warranty)

Nitto's are a lot cheaper than the pirelli's

My current set of tires only lasted 20,000 miles (Sumitomo HTR A/S PO2)

Looking for something good for dry and rain...

Any ideas?

Bfgoodrich Comp2 all seasons work damn good and will last quite some time. Reasonably priced also.

I have pirelli p zero’s on my car and they are pretty solid. The wear is good and my rear tires chirp a lot, love dyno steves tune lol. May try toyo r888 the next since I need something that hooks better.

Heard good thing about the proxes sport for all season tires, never used them myself personally - https://www.toyotires.com/product/proxes-sport-as

For wet and dry grip you'd be better off with summer tires over all-season. Michelin's Pilot Sport PS4 whatever they call it is probably the best street tire out there for wet and dry; Continental also makes a good rival, the ExtremeContact Sport. If you're not willing to spend the extra $$$ for the premium stuff, I'm currently running the Nitto NT555 G2's, 275/40 all around, and they've been pleasantly fun, never had them break loose while pushing the car "spiritedly", and holds fine in the rain, not that I push the car hard when it's wet/raining.

My Pirelli p-zero's are noisy.

I have run the Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 since the car was new in 2011 and love them. Great tire and they hook pretty good at the 1/4 mile, when they are new. lol

I also run the Continental Extreme Contact and agree with 1JEWLDSSRS.

Leaning towards these on the next shoe change. Have Coops right now and really no complaints but, new ones are now made in China so.... moving along.

I'm running the Michelin Pilot 4S on my Z/28, great tire but a little pricey. Post #2 brought up the BF Goods, a very good suggestion. If you're not doing any race or track work there's no need to deplete the piggy bank.

I've got a full set of Nitto G2's with 300 miles on them for $500.

I like the G2’s. This question will yield you a lot of different answers.
