It's time to replace my tires. Came with the Dunlop Sport Maxs. They have been fine, but what is you guys experience? Should I go with Dunlops again? Or Bridgestone Potenzia's? Or Michelins?

Inputs and opinions please!

Im going to get the Potenza RE050 Pole Positions, the RE050 that came OEM on the care arent of the Pole Position model, but they cost the same on tire rack.

I'd have to say depends on what you want out of your car/location/driving style. The way i drive the cheep sumitomo's will work just fine but imma gonna be going with the goodyear F1 GS-D3 only cuz i like the look of the tread

I second on the Eagle F1 GS-D3. Better performance and tread life than the stock Potenza RE050.

You guys are wussies - I'd rock the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s . . .

pssh, the tread pattern on the F1 GS-D3 LOOKS way cooler than the Pilot Sport

Another vote for the Good Year Eagle F1 DS-D3. Had them on my Audi S4 and loved them.

I m also getting F1 GS-D3 myself. my choice was btw F1 and RE050 pole dancer, but I figured F1 will add 25 more horses to the wheels.

any tires that are lighter than stocks and perform better w/better tread life?

It freezes/snows in NC, doesn't it? It gets cold here in TX a few times in the winter, so I put Michelin Pilot A/S on mine, so I don't have to sit at home when it's cold.

no one has mentioned the bfgoodrich gforce tires? I've never had them but hear they are great... Also really quick question... yes I realize I could probably find the answer by searching but all I need is a yes or no, will 265/35/18's fit on the stock rear rims?

How does your car perform with these tires? I am considering them myself.

Thank you

Well, I have only about 1500 miles on them, but they seem to perform just as well as the Dunlops did. I don't really push it hard, though, usually. I read all the reviews on Tirerack.com, and they seemed to be the best alternative to performance tires, but they're costly. The tires/shipping were $1002, plus 120 for install and alignment.

I should add that these tires don't "tram-line", like the Dunlops did, and I like the "ride" much better.
