OK what do you guys suggest I go then, what high end bridgestone? Should I stick with my Pilot Super Sports and just go as wide as possible?

im 33 and still have no desire to get married although the missus is waiting for the ring. I told her it might take a while. I mean c'mon, I only just went TT, I haven't even built the engine yet. LOL
