I run the Michelin PS2's and they are great. I have 225' in the front and 275's in the back. Very nice gripping tires. They seem to respond very well in dry or wet conditions. The michelins will cost you a little more but beleive me they are worth it! The added cost should give you some additional lifespan on tires as long as you dont abuse the rubber.

I did have Continental tires on the car when the car was first aquired and it was like night and day, the difference, between a good and not so good tire on our cars.

When it comes to the rubber on your rims dont compromise unless you are going to abuse your rubber. Then you might want a less expensive tire since you will be changing them fairly often.
