Tires MICHELIN or Toyo

i had those on my porsche, very very nice tires, but then i only got to drive in the snow once with them, seemed fine, i didn't have any problems with them

Don't know about the Toyos but the PS2'S are great. They handle excellent in the rain and in the dry. High Speed stability is excellent as well.

Yes, they'll start talking when you reach their limits of adhesion. Not as loudly as the F1s, but at pretty much the same point (just as they're starting to let go--which seems to be fairly gradual and predictable).

I just ran a track weekend at Pocono Raceway with my PS2's, 245/35/19. They performed extremely well for a street tire.

The PS2s have a much stiffer sidewall than the stock Goodyear F1s, which is exactly what I was looking for. No noticeable tread squirm while cornering and sharper steering response as a result. Of course, this also means they provide a less cushy ride than the F1s--the surface of the road is communicated much more readily to the cabin. The PS2s also produce quite a bit more road noise. Driving on grooved/textured highways was much noisier than the F1s. The tread pattern also produces a tendency for these tires to follow grooves in the road, which was never an issue with the F1s. In terms of overall grip, the PS2s are outstanding. I took several corners at speed in the Ozark Mountains, and the PS2s showed no signs of letting go. Very confidence-inspiring. They're easily as grippy as the F1s, and actually felt as though they were superior in this regard. Wet weather performance was easily as good as the F1s, much to my pleasant surprise. I drove in conditions that varied from a light sprinkle to a heavy downpour, and the PS2s continued to perform as solidly as they did in the dry. I plowed through several puddles with not even a hint of hydroplaning.

Go with Toyo T1-s Proxes 195/45/14. I have them on my P-slots. A bit pricey, but I love them.

They will last you the longest and offer superb grip once they are warmed up.

Dry traction is great, Ill be able to give you a better idea when i get my suspension installed this week. No noise at all, ive put a couple thousand miles on the tires. The tires are surprisingly quiet. So far so good

just got some put on my ride yesterday. I am very pleased so far. We had a ton of rain here yesterday and the new shoes grip like mad on wet pavement.

My wife's CR-V has Michelin Artic Alpins, they work OK but they emit a really loud "whistle" on wet asphalt.
