Toyo T1R Proxes
225/35/19
Like the tire, like the grip, I don't know whether I would suggest them or not because they are kinda expensive
$379.99 a tire (19's are more expensive)

225/45/17 Yokohama s.Drives
great turning response, good traction, good price, but the compound is a little hard for summer tires at 300. very quiet when loosing grip
would reccomend for people that are looking for a nice all around summer tire.

Nitto NeoGen 225/40/18
I've owned two sets of these, one on my LT and the other on my SS/TC.
On the LT I was running Sportlines and koni inserts, they were amazing ask Tom or Andy about chasing them down around corners (Andy had a SS/TC on KW1 coilovers) very predictable and surprised me more than once with how much grip they had.
On the SS/TC I still love them, even moreso with how neutral the car is to begin with. Time will tell how long I can keep the rubber on em though
Equally at home on wet or dry pavement. Very quiet tire.
Best tires I've ever owned, and the set mounted and balanced was only $500!

Yeah. If I remember correctly the NT05s don't do too well in the rain.

Lol wish I had the option. How do those Invos do in the rain? I was considering a set but figured I'd just get NeoGens for now.
On a side note my driver side front tire got a hole in the side wall today....bought them on the 16th.....gotta buy another one now because I dont like sidewall patches.

the OP and I have been PM'ing i'm just in the process of making the sig, been a LONG day and my mind is half asleep. man that sucks about your tire, i guess one way to look at it is at least u didn't have to replace 2
Yeah, not too happy about it. Especially since I gotta pay for the new one.
