I guess I am a little confused with this thread. You started off wanting recommendations of 2 tires, then get disappointed that people aren't jumping in to offer their advice, then bring up another 2 different tires, then state you already bought them, then say it is just for the rear tires, then yet again you ask for more recommendations?

You never really said what your use were for the tires, nor the amount of tread left....cannot imagine much tread left with your G-Tech 0-60 clutch popping race days......lol.....but if I had my choice (considering all of your pricey toys and apparent excess of disposible income) I wouldn't go cheap. Just get a complete matched set of Pilots or PZeros or even Yoko ADVANs...

All the best...

Lol yeah, well im a cheap man lol, so i went with some Sumitomo HTR Z II

Don't be cheap. You might not get a 2nd chance. Your parents and other motorist hope you buy good tires.

$680 with the Goodyear cash card offer this month.


Probably the absolute best tire in the rain I have ever had. And equal to anything from Michelin or Bridgestone in the dry and you'll save a couple hundred.

and that buying tires is tough because there is so little good information out there.

The Sumitomo HTR + tires is mediocre in all 5 wet and dry performance categories but excellent and very good on snow and ice. It wears very quickly. On a 100 point scale, the difference was 22 points.

The Goodyear rates as very good across the board, not as good as the Michelin PS2 in wet and dry braking (very good versus excellent) and worse in rolling resistance (mileage). On a 100 point scale, the difference was 12 points.
