For tires go to the tire rack site and on the left side of the page click on survey results. Pick the category that best fits your budget and purpose. Buy one of the top two choices. I personally have Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec on my 01 S. There is not a tire out there with more grip in my opinion. Stick to Discount Tire for purchasing and mounting. The only negative with them is they don't fill with nitrogen. Take your tire rack price into Discount Tire and they will match it.

The other nice thing about Discount Tire is they swap out my rims/tires twice a year (summer tires vs all-seasons) for free. Also, when I have a flat tire - car, tractor, wheelbarrow - you name it - if it can be patched they'll do it for free. That kind of customer service cuts a lot of ice with me.
