Im seriously considering the new Goodyear Eagle F1 all season tires. They are filling the new niche of ultra high performance all season tires that really are "all season". Everything I have read so far stated great dry performance and wet performance...not to mention the "wet leaf performance"...

I love my new Khumo Ultra High Performance Ecsta ASX tires. Very quite and comfortable tire and performs well too.

Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS. Only tire I've been able to drive with more than a dusting of snow. Got caught in a sudden snowstorm one night and these plowed through 2-3 inches without missing a beat. Other tires I've had wouldn't have gone five feet without getting stuck. Very quiet also. Cons: Amazing ability to separate mud from water, leaving the water on the roadway and slinging the mud onto your wheel wells and rocker panels. Happens every time I drive in the rain, even on "clean" streets.

+1 on the Fuzion ZRi's i just put the 16" turbo phone dials on my 87S and went with the 224f/245r fuzions, they are awesome for the money. Will outperform more expensive tires.

Fuzion ZRi is a great tire! cheap, great in the rain, sticky enough for track work, don't wear quickly, quiet... Love em!

Has anyone run this tire?
At 200 bucks less then a set of Bridgestone RE-01R's and decent reviews I might give them a shot.
