Default Tires

More Questions: I plan on driving our TT just in the summer. What is the thinking for tires? Not looking for something to race with, just good performance, longer lasting tires. If I can find this info. somewhere else on the site, point me to it.
Thank 'ya

on my stock 18s ive got hankook ventus k107s they are surprisingly similar to the michelin pilot sports. they have a HUGE sidewall. very stiff! and they are much cheaper than the michelins. i believe hankook may have pulled them off the market, due to copyright lawsuit from michelin. if you can find them, they are awesome tires.

I can tell you what not to get. Nitto NT555s. They were on the car when I bought it and are simply dangerous in the rain. I had some BF Goodrich KDWs on my Evo that I really liked.
