A good long lasting, quiet riding, etc option would be Continental's Pure Contact. Top tire in its class across the board and pretty popular option for the G. Pirelli's P7 A/S Plus would be a very close second.

I am looking for some guidance for performance tires to put on my 2004 g35 sedan. I have acquired some coupe 17" wheels (17x7.5 front, 17x8 rear). And I'd like to put on some performance tires that will be decent for autocross, drag racing, and track days, but also hopefully last over 20,000 miles. That sounds like a tall order but I will be mostly commuting and very rarely racing. Most likely just 2 autocross events per season.

In the past I have run Falken Azenis RT 215, and 615's, and kumho MX's for my performance tire. Needless to say it's been a while since I bought sticky tires.

I am thinking 235/50/17 all around because the sedan didn't come with staggered tires.

Please let me know your tire suggestions as well as size recommendations.

The size is a tad short, but makes load and fits both those wheel sizes. Not a whole lot to choose from based on your needs. However, the B-Stone S04 is available and would be your best best. Will be hard getting 20k out of any tire you plan on tracking and such, but the S04 is what I would use.

have you been hearing any good feedback regarding the Continental ExtremeContact Sports?

I had my eye set on Michelin Pilot Super Sports, but it seems they are being discontinued (guessing the Pilot Sport 4S is the replacements)

MaxV35, I don't think the offset is right on coupe wheels for your sedan, might wanna check that first.

Hello!
I need help with getting a wider alternative for 2005 g35x.
Is it advisable to get 225/55/17 instead of 215/55/17?
We drive a lot on highways in canadian winters. (Alberta specifically).

If anybody can help, that would be really appreciated!

Neil if you're still hanging around I'd like your opinion on the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. My BFG comp 2 A/S wore faster than I expected and might switch gears with my next set of tires.

So switching directions after researching a lot more let's 86 the Firestones. So new question for you, Yokohoma Advan Sport A/S or Continental Pure Contact, which would you recommend? These will go on the GTO first and if all goes well will be replacing the tires on the G when they wear out with what I go with here.

TIA for your advice, waits with baited breath.........

Need all seasons

Hey everyone and Neal. Question. Got an 04 coupe base. Stock 17 inch wheels. I’m in need of 2 front tires but I may go all 4 now if the price is right. I need a good all season that won’t break the bank. I wanted the Achilles atr sport 2 all 4 but they don’t make the rear size I need. Any other recommendations. I’d do the 2 Achilles now but later on when I need or can afford rears they wouldn’t even have my size
