First set of tires for me were Hankook Ventus Evo2s, now I'm on Potenzas in the back. I like the Potenzas more.

the N spec tires are mucho more$, my Porsche requires N spec tires but all the P guys are going to the MPSS, I did, tire is better, less $ , rides smoother and more longevity.

I drove my GTi from Alabama to D.C. to see family. About halfway though Virginia we got some rain and I realized I needed tires ASAP. We made it to PA and I decided to get the S04. I started to strongly dislike the GTi before the S04 b/c I felt like it just didn't have the mojo that it used to and that I'd grown accustomed to with a hot hatch. That tire made me fall in love with the car again, I kept it another year. It gave me everything I wanted from a tire and none of the stuff I hated about tires. Great ride. Great price. Great dry traction and wet traction. I probably drive more mildly on the street than some of you guys, but I feel like i'd run out of road and skill before I ran out of tire on the street with the S-04.

I need to get tires soon too. Why change sizes and not stay stock? Is it for looks? Performance? I'm thinking the s04's so should I stay with stock or change sizes?

I see a lot of people in California chiming in. I have one question. I only went the all season route because it was getting cold and since I live in the desert it did get to about 20 or so degrees. Do you run summer tires all year or what?

But if I were you, I would replace all four of those garbage tires asap Get some Bridgestone S-04's for performance without breaking the bank
