What tires do you recommend?

Looks like i will be finally joining the G35 coupe family. Finalizing the deal for a 2005 Silverstone, 6 speed manual. I already know what wheels i will get (the Volk Racing GT-C's, 19 inch, 275's in back, and 245's in front). From what i can see there aren't too many choices for tires. Which tires do you recommend ? I was a big fan of the Yokohama AVS ES100's on my WRX.... they stuck pretty well, and and didn't wear too fast....so i'd like something comparable to put on the Volks. Thanks for your input

i had toyo t1r tires. Let me just say, they were the worse tires i ever drove on.... The side wall was very unstable around turns, and created some body roll.

I now have a E55 AMG, and just put on some Michelin PS2's. The reviews are right, i only have about 10 miles on em and they are by far the best tire i have ever drive on... BY FAR.

I was an idiot and didnt want to spend the extra money on it when i had my G.

Trust me, they are THE BEST TIRE.
