Hello forum

Well I will be getting my tires replaced by dealership.
They said something to me on the fact that they dont have to replace with the same ones that are on the car" Pzero rosso", but they have to be the same rating I told them or better at least.

Would the forum have any recommendation on which tires are good for our SS\SC that I can tell the dealership about so they dont put some no name crap on my car.

I wasnt a fan of the Pzeros rossos to begin with.

Kumho ecstas

cheaper, wider, better traction and look nice IMO. They also have longer tread life.

lol...I was just about to post that...a friend got them in 225/45 and he says that the ride feels better because you don't deel the road as much as the 215/45's. His is lowered too.

The Falken FK 452 are pretty cheap too

I just got the Falken FK 452 in a 225/45/18 and I love them. They are a little more of a profile than the factory ones but not much at all. They feel really smooth and def. grip better than the stock tires that is for sure.

The first set made noise, then I took out my cat and I don't really notice anymore. Just a hum at about 40mph and again at about 80, and you really only heard it with windows up, A/c on low, radio down or off. Not LOUD, but they did make noise.
Not sure if I don't hear it on this set because of the different size or if they sound the same but the car is just to loud to hear it. My car is not about quiet though, I go more for performance.

Vetteman-sssc's dealership advertised free tires for the life of the vehicle when he bought his balt. He's having a little runaround trying to have them actually buy the tires, but that's how .


In response to the OP, what everyone else said . I have the BFG G-Force Sport on my Contour right now (summer tires, on a Contour, go ahead and laugh please ). They are decent tires. I could only find them in a 225/40/18 though which has a little shorter sidewall then stock.

Personally I LOVE the P-zero Nero M&S, same rating as stock, looking like I'm going to get about 4x the tread life of the Rossos out of them (Rossos replaced at 17k, Neros are at 18k and look almost new, you can BARELY tell they've got wear on them). They've got significantly more grip than the Rossos (which is counter-intuitive given that they're a harder compound). They go like hell in the rain, and you can use them as all-season tires, though I still use dedicated snow tires.
