S4 - tire brand suggestion
#16
Not sure about how long is longevity but I've used Michelin Pilot Sports All Seasons............great grip for for non track use wet, dry, very light driveway snow (dont drive the car in winter)
BTW Andrew............the word tyre spelled with a 'y' is British not French or even Canadian French. The word was then changed to be spelled with a 'i' in North America primarily your part of the world.
Tyres filled with air, pneumatic vs solid, were invented by a Scot whose tyres are still made today..........Dunlop.

Malcom,
Thanks for this. What Michelin sizes are you using?
I was also looking at the Fuzion. I guess with their low price I may as well give it a try...and feedback to all of you...
Tyres...I think Andrew refers to the funny way people from quebec use the word when pronounced with a strong french canadian accent! Funny he brought it up!
OK, it is self inflicted but try this (no politics please...just laugh!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TncdhLGjFTE

I concur with the Fuzion ZR1's......on my second set of rears but there are some spritied DE's and general hard driving on them.....235 50 17's front and 275 rears......good handling for an inexpensive tire, fairly quiet and a good lookin tread pattern.

I have only driven my 89 Euro for one full summer and I can tell you for sure that a set of S-drive Yokohama's will only last 4500-5000k of fun/aggressive driving.
I now have Malcolm's old rims and Michelin Pilot Sports and expect to get half the summer out of the rears, fronts are still like new.
