New Tires - large picture
Purchased new tires and had them installed today. Wow, what a difference. Thanks all for the advice.
Ended up going with Bridgestone Pole Position in the GTS setup 225/45/17 front and 255/40/17 in the rear. These are smaller than what I had with the Pirelli/Dunlop.
Much smoother, quieter and great handling.

Jerry,
Nice tires and rims. It looks like you installed the clear filler for the driving lights, also looks nice.

Thanks, I did the clear filter without taking off the additonal piece. Not perfect and looks better from the front - so I guess I can live with it. My piece happens to be painted red instead of black which helps.
Here it is from the front.

You sure have one of the most beautiful 928s I have ever seen, Jerry.
Absolutely awesome <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" /> !
Looks just like my red GTS, except that I have the stock C2 Turbo wheels, black calipers and no clear corners <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> .

Wow, A red GTS - looks Great. I probably should have waited until I found a nice one like yours but had that "Shark Fever" plus I would have missed all the fun of upgrading it. Here is my interior now - most via Jager.
