Tire Preferences

Just as the title states, post your tire preference.

I'm currently running Kumho Ecsta ASX's, but they're just about to retire. Looking into Goodyear F1's.

I put Yokohamas on lots of customer/family cars. I personally really like COntis too.

I have Goodyear Eagle GTs on mine and I've been impressed so far. Today was slicker then snot (rain + melting snow followed by freezing overnight temps) but they held pretty dang well. Even in actual snow last week I was pleasantly surprised.

These tires I'm getting, are going on the stock rims for winter mode. 215/45/18's. I can get the F1's mounted/balanced all for $150 a tire.

I'm going through a local shop, I won't deal with national chains.
