About time for some new tires for the g8gt. Size is 245-45-18. Budget is a max of about $200 per tire. Ive had decent experiences with
- Bridgestone KDA
- Michelin Pilots
- Continental

Was thinking about some Advans, maybe some Nitto Invo's (good price, not so sure about the performance) Open to summer and all seaon tires. Only brand I have had bad experiences with are Hankook.

Any brands or styles you guys have had good experiences with? Mileage isnt a huge concern but would like to get at least 20k out of them. Decent all around tires.

what are your aims for the tire.. Decent all around could really mean anything.

Stick with what you know.. Michelin pilots are a great tire...

You say bad experience with hankook but i have hankook ventus v12 evos right now and they are honestly the best tires i have ever run on the car.. ive run everthing from goodyear gsd3s to summitomo htrz's

Car is a daily driver so they have to be able to handle rain and relatively cold temps, did have to deal with a little snow up here this year as well but Im not sure I want all seasons based on 1 or 2 days a year.

Mostly driven moderatly with the occasional thrashings.

Turanza w Serenity is good, and I've heard Michelin MXv4 is pretty nice too..

I've been pretty happy with my Continental ExtremeContact high performance all season tires. I've had them on the Integra for a while and they're surprisingly good in the snow.

(they also held their own at a mud-ridden RallyX as well )

MXV4 is not exactly a performance oriented tire. Pilot Sports will give you a great compromise b/w comfort/performance and longevity, the only downside is price. It's not a true track tire, but I'd be surprised if you got them to overheat on the street.

sounds like you need nice winter tires/wheels. and have another summer set.

yea I really liked the pilots on my old firebird, just a bit pricey. thinking I may give the nittos a try.

^that just takes away from funds for the rustang.

Sell the weld and run 10 holes and put it towards tyres

Damnit, picked up a set of Continental all seasons, was getting them put on, noticed a slice in one of them where some moron with a box cutter slipped. Hopefully discount tires customer service wont be a pain.
