What were the steps to the process when you presented your proposal to the GM?

The sidewalls of these Bridgestones are stiff so I decreased tire pressure to 32/33 F/R for my F-Sport on 19 inch and it really made the car smooth above 75 mph with little jiggliness on the grooved and bumpy highways while keeping the car handling sharp and accurate with no issues. Around city over bumps and ridges the car does very well regardless. I will be switching them out for Michelins in few months.

Yes either that or the all season Michelin Pilot Sport A/S plus or Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires. Both are rated at the top in respective categories with the exception of the Pilot Sport A/S which is aging. I have the Primacys on another car and they are phenomenal and great handling/ride feel with thread mileage warranty of 50k miles and they do live up to that. If I get Pilot Super Sport than I need to get the winter tires for winter or a winter set which is a hassle. I do that on my father's Audi A8L for him since he has to drive 90 miles a day on highway round trip daily. I do less than that.
