I got the Michelin Defenders (stock 17\"). Definitely feel better than the Pirelli Scorpion Verdes that came with the car IMO. Tig is quiet and smooth, handles potholes very well, even makes my dirt road seem very smooth and quiet. Rain puddles like they aren't even there. Snow like a champ. Drove in a monster snowstorm this past winter, cars were off the road left and right, plows just couldn't keep up with it... Tig was driving like a tank, non-issue. Summer driving has been fun too!

Pros: quiet, smooth, handles potholes well

Didn't want to spend the money for them this year so I got indy500s and love em. Great bang for the buck. Pretty sticky. Quiet. Cheap.

Pros: great bang for the buck

I just want to add that through recent personal experience the firehawk indy500 are absolutely fantastic for the money. They look cool, perform well in wet, have fantastic dry grip and road feel and don’t “crash” over certain road imperfections or hum like your wheel bearings are made of wood on the highway. Highly recommend.

Pros: fantastic grip, good road feel

Another vote for the Continental DWS... I have had them for front tires on my '06 for about a year..only reason I haven't replaced the stock rears is because they still have tread left at 73K!(they are Michelin Primacys which are a nice tire but only under dry or wet conditions..tread life is awesome, but they're terrible in snow)

Pros: awesome tread life
Cons: terrible in snow
Mileage: 73000 km
