What tires do you run?

PSS are amazing but problem.... OP said he wanted all season tires which they are not. A/S + or Continental DWS are best bet.

Michelins are always top notch. Although they are on the expensive side, they worth every penny IMHO.

OP, also check the tirerack.com. They have ratings on tread wear, tractions under wet, dry, snow conditions and so on(it's under the survey's tab).

O ok this is good info, I was wanting the DWS but they are on backorder and i need tires like now not in a month lol. I saw the yokohoma yk580 are pretty good what do you think?

I love the PSS. Got them just in time for nice a long drive over the weekend through freeways and canyon roads and all I can say is wow, great tires. You can get 255/35 and a 305/30 for 1300 (or lower) installed if you shop around.

I would recommend Bridgestone RE-11s. Mounted on my 350Z, they're the best tires I've ever had.

I wasn't correcting you, I was agreeing with you. If you realize everyone else in the thread has been saying PSS.....

I personally am going RE-11's next set but I live in Hawaii so rain is my only weather concern lol.

Re-11

dP3NGU1N · 03-19-2013, 03:37 AM

I'm looking at the treadwear rating on the RE11 vs PSS and the PSS seems to have double the treadlife of REs? Is this correct in practice? They seem to be similar price and performance but if the REs wear twice as quickly it seems the PSS would be the better buy.

Someone dispell my ignorance please. =\

My Z is not my daily driver. Go ahead and ask me about what my daily driver is! You'll laugh! Anyway, I have Yokohama Advan Sport tires and they are very high quality and super sticky. Not so good in the Seattle rain, though, so I take it easy on the freeway.

Tread wear ratings really aren't comparable across manufacturers. They really don't compare we'll within the same brand, either. But yes, expect the PSS to last a lot longer.

USMCASA · 03-19-2013, 07:13 AM

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S hands down. Will never buy anything else
