Tire Recommendations

Need 245 50 ZR16 tires for my car. Currently, SLP is no longer doing take offs so, that ends my source of cheap tires. Any opinions are welcome.

Unhappy

I feel your pain........I have had to go to using Kumho's Escta (SP?) model. I spent about $400.00 on the H-Rated series. They have been pretty good with about a years use on them. I think I am going to go with Nitto Drag Radials in the future.

All Season? Like....Snow compatible? And Be ZR or Y Rated Only?

Cheap? Pirelli P7000 looks cheapest. $96

Step down the ZR rating and it gets cheaper and the selection goes...VoooOOOP!

I was thinking of Z rated tires. Mainly because I drive it hard in the summer. This would be a winter project so I could wait if the prices will drop
