Rear End: 3.08
5sp or Auto: 5 speed
Wheel Size: OEM 17x8
Tire Size: 245/45R17
Tire Make: Goodyear Eagle F1 AS6

I was considering Goodyears, Michelins and Continentals as they are very close at Tyrereviews.com tests. Went finmally with Goodyears as I have but good experiences of the brand.

Car is really nice to drive with these, new suspension and four wheel alignment.

I run a 185/75-15 front hankook , 10x28-15 rear hoosier drag radial

17x9 wheels. Nitto 555 G2’s. 275/45 front; 285/40 rear.
Personal rating: 7.5/10

My take: road noise, appearance and wear- Good/very good.

Grip and cornering is “as expected “, but I was hoping for more. For my confidence level in performance situations, I would readily sacrifice wear for grip.

I actually ran the Nitto drag radials for a brief time and immediately felt more confidence in them.

DRs are great for straight line acceleration, but not so good in the corners.
A great all around tire is the Toyo Proxes R888 or R888R

I run MT ET Streets now (DR), and my next rear tires are going to be the R888R
