Tire Question

Does anyone have Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires? I was looking at the 215-55ZR-16 for my 98 SE Max, and just wanted to get some feed back on that as they are kind of pricey.

I don't have Pirelli's but they are way over priced. You can get Dunlop Sport A2's for cheaper and they are just as good or better.

pilot sport a/s: get them. they are going to be my next tires. way better in the rain than the stock re92s that are on the 5th gen SEs, most people who have them will tell you they are the best "all around" tire you can buy (if you can shell out that much cash )

pirelli's?

Re: Re: Re: Tire Question

different tire, but my AVS's are pretty good in the dry, a little shaky in the wet, i get "squibbles" every once in a while. Maybe i'm going too fast, maybe I have a wider footprint. Who knows. I was gonna try either the bridgestone potenza s-03 pole position or a bfgoodrich tire, either the dry or the dry/wet one, i think the dry pulled a 1.06 g on a corvette on the skidpad, is that good? i'm really not sure, can anyone eniligten me?
