Re: Tire recommendation
Agree if you are selling. Nittos also a possibility--check with Robert Demarco.--Bob

Re: Tire recommendation
I agree with the goodyears, only Y rated tire in correct size, but if selling car then they are pricey, I just got a few months ago out the door, taxes, disposal, mount, stems, road force balance, $606 for 2 rears, and felt that was a great price

Re: Tire recommendation
Nitto 555G2 are the best bang for the buck.

Re: Tire recommendation
Nitto NT555g2
Good dry traction and you can drive sanely in the rain. Put something decent on the car for a reasonable cost, the new owner will appreciate it. Sumitomos are garbagio, stock car, dry roads, they break traction on the 1-2 shift. Sent from my Nexus 6 using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app
