Many times after 8,000 miles when you reflect about the less expensive tires you though were such a good deal...............you find yourself wishing you had sprung for the top of the line tires that the car was designed to utilize!
My 90 Q came with the Michelin Sport XGTV [their top of the line model back then] and over 16 years and 306,000 miles I have tried different brands and models looking for a cheaper tire. Purchased 16 x4= 64 tires
Many of my experiments lasted just 5,000 miles when the lesser tires were given away to poor relatives..........after 6 experiments I gave up and never tried anything inferior again.
Goodyear, Dunlop, Yokohama, Bridgestone, and Kumho.
Actually a Firestone SZ50 experiment was a success in that I kept the tires for 20,000 miles and was quite happy unfortunately they stopped producing this tire before I needed replacements.
Luckily the G35 is a lighter car by 500 pounds, wishing you success.
