Neal540 was only trying to help, and you give him attitude. The more you can specify the better people can help you.

There are a lot of tire threads on the coupe and wheels/tires forums, i suggest you browse there. You will always get varying opinions on several different tires, so you will ultimately have to decide.

If you want an answer, get Michelin Pilot Sports.

Chill out dude, I was just trying to be nice..Manufacterer's don't make their tires in every size, e.g. Goodyear doesnt make eagle f1 gs-d3 in our size 225/45/18 245 rear (18" rims)...If you just want manufacterers, I'll list em..

Ultrahigh Performance
Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3
Michelin Pilot Sport
Michelin Pilor Sport PS2
Bridgestone Potenza S-03
Pirelli makes some good tires as well, but I've heard of real bad treadwear..

These are generally pretty costly..however some good lower priced alternatives are like nitto nt555 and toyo t1s and some yokohamas (not much lower). Also the BFG KDW-2 are pretty good, they look really cool too, flame pattern..

For other G drivers, has anyone tried the AVON brand of tires? They seem british in their spelling and are pretty cheap. Their all season one is ranked high on tire rack too..

whoa, caps=hostility..lol

I personally like nitto 555's they are soft so you get great traction but still somehow get great tread life........unlike most soft tires. Plus, you can get them for a good price.

I say go for the nittos they are good..if you are willing to shell out a little bit more get the goodyears, they are amazing tires. the ps2s may outperform a little, and if you dont mind spending the $ get them. also i know bfg makes the kdw2 in a 20" size..maybe its 19...dunno but of those three get one...that's what i'de do..i know for a fact the nittos come in a lot of really large sizes...

im thinking 255 rear 235 front..35 and 20....(correct me if am wrong but its 25.4 mm per inch?) and 10 = 254 mm and 9 = 229?) this is the only mathematical method i know..i am by no means a tire size expert so you may want to ask a moderator to move it to the wheels and tires section..
