What are the best street and some Autocross tires for 17" wheels? 225x45x17 and 245x40x17?
I have Michelin Pilot Super Sports on the car now. They are ten years old and feel kind of hard. No cracks in the sidewalls yet... I'm leaning towards these same tires again. Costco also has a $70.00 off coupon if you buy four. http://tires2.costco.com/product.aspx?Item...1c-d8abc8693fdf It looks like Costco only carry's 215x45x17 for Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Not that big of a deal... |

For mostly street driving PSS's are pretty nice tires. Great grip, Good longevity, Great rain traction...
Sure they are expensive, but you get a lot of life out of the tire. If you want cheaper I would consider the Federal 595RSRR's. I can put you in contact with my distributor. They will be your biggest bang for the buck for a street tire, but I dont think they would last more than 20k miles. |
