I have had 3 sets of tires, the OEM Continental Conti's, they are good tire but lousy tread life. My next set was Goodyear Eagle F-1's with carbon fiber inner wall linings. They saved my life from a major pot hole or something that was about 6" deep and swallowed my car up, high spped lane after paying with EZ-Pass over the GW bridge in NY. Trucks in front side and rear, all set to gobble me up and the car with it. I managed to make it to a rest area where I inspected the damage. 1 bent rim and the others were damaged as well. The tires were all holding air ( I use nitrogen in them) I limped home, called my insurance co. and got an adjuster there pretty quickly.
The point is I got enough to buy TSW Willow Rims all around and Toyo Proxes T1 R all around. They are great and would recomend them over some of the major brands out there. They handle quite well and look great too!
