Tires Firestone or GENERAL TIRE
I went with General Altimax RT-43's (H speed versions). Are they as good as the Michelins they replaced feeling wise? No. But they were affordable, have been lasting quite nicely in terms of tread life, and have been working out just fine for my uses.
I have 205/50/16 Indy 500s on Dekagrams and it’s perfect. Have specR lowering springs also. And no rubbing (sits perfect to me).
I now have Firestone Indy 500s and am quite pleased with them.
Firestone indy 500. Rest of the world except usa they are known as bridgestone re003
fantastic tires. on my 3rd set on my z over the years. Great in the rain. good traction. not noisy. and affordable
My F150 came with General Grabber HTS60’s. Highway-biased all season tire, but it’s not afraid to go through a little snow - so rain should be fine. Nice, quiet highway ride.
I've been happy with General Grabber HTS60 for the last 2 years
Another decent tire at a very good price is the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. They handle all the spirited driving I do quite well.
General Grabber HTS60
Good reviews on tire rack and consumer reports and more affordable than Continental Terrain Contact H/T or the Michelin Defender LTX M/S although slightly less mileage warranty.
I got the Firestone Indy 500 in 215/55/17 and they have a LOT of grip but the sidewalls are very soft so there's not much steering feel.
I currently have a set of Firestones on my car. I hate them. Noisest tire I have ever used, and they are leaving black marks on my garage floor. But they were cheep and that's all I could afford at the time. Never again.
