I always recommend checking out 1010tires.com.
They have ratings on most tires, and break it down into groups like wet, traction, thread life, etc. Personally, my biggest cocerns are treadlife and wet traction. but it depnds on your needs for the car.

I like the Kumhos Ecsta SPT. I now have them on the front and rear. Great all season tire with aqua-tread design and good grip. :dance:

Check out what Falken has to offer. I put a set on my supercharged jag and they are performing flawlessly, even in the rain.

Is this the tire of the future? No more air needed.

^ That is crazy!
The wear, and ride quality must really suck. I would rather deal with the occasional flat or blowout than the ride quality that thing must have.
But it would definitely be a head turner.
