Re: New Tires
Mickey Thompsons are made in China. Remember that any all season tire has a harder rubber compound for longer life and are not a high traction high-performance tire. 300 treadwear seems to be the middle ground for performance and longevity.

Re: New Tires
I spent some time with a guy that I know and we decided on Nitto NT555 G2's. The price overall was $966.00. I don't race since I go faster on takeoff in a jet than people have ever driven in their cars and it's harder to control than a car is. It's also a hell of thrill to do. We'll see how they are.
