Time for good tires.

[JayG]

Are you looking for street performance tire, or one for track and AX?

For street, Michelin Pilot SuperSports are a great choice. Its a better tire than the PS2
for track, Bridgestone RE-71R is the go to tire

for less expensive options, the Sumotomo HTR ZIII can't be beat. I have run them and the Hankook V12 and the Sumi IMHO is a better a tire, lower cost as well.

Neither the Sumi or the V12's will be great for track or AX

Those are all summer tires and since you are in ID, you probably want all season tires now as its going to get cold there soon.
I don't have a recommendation for all season tires as here in San Diego, I don't need them

I slightly disagree. I have the MPSS on my 991S. Very good tires.

But, I've had many sets of PS2s on my Boxster.

The MPSS are the better every day performer, better in the wet, less $$ and longer tread wear.

The PS2s are the better dry performance tire, still very good in the rain, cost more.

This has been my experience. YMMV.

I'd rather have the PS2s, but they don't make my size; 245/35/20 and 305/30/20 since I don't drive in the rain, and don't really care about tread life.

Years ago, I had the Yoko AD08s on my 993 Turbo. Amazing tire. Also can't get in my size.

Firestone firehawk indy 500?

...and Bridgestone S-04 tires are really great for not a lot of money.

That is what I am getting once Tirerack has them back in stock.

This is a good choice--it's a rest of world Bridgestone tire that's been rebranded for the US market. People have been very happy with them so far.

I am running Conti ExtremeContact Sports on my '02 with 18" wheels. Good tires except for the tramlining.

+1 on the Sumotomo HTR ZIII. Very good tire for not much money.
