I'm hoping Tony at Discount Tire will take care of me. He's a former Z owner and takes care of all my tire needs. Plus he's the one who originally installed these tires and told me about his buddy who was selling them.

I generally run Nitto Invos because summer performance is quite good, wet weather is excellent, wear isn't terrible, and price is right for high mileage DD.

These A/S3's I picked up because they were already installed on a set of sport rims a local Z owner was selling. Normally, I wouldn't buy all seasons for a sports car, but I have to say the traction in sub-40's temps has been great and is a vast improvement over any of the performance tires I've used (duh).

Once I get another DD, I will be looking to run something like RE-11s for autoX or track events. Eventually, I'd like to be serious enough to haul the Z to events on a trailer with slicks, but I have a lot of performance and driver modding to do before I get to that point.
