Cheaper tires tend to suck more in the wet. I found that out personally on two different sets of cheap tires. Also, the Z doesn't really like A/S tires. It prefers a full on summer tire or snow tires.

You can get S-04s for the base wheels for less than $200 per tire. Definitely not all seasons, but hard to beat for the price. They're good in the wet and very good in the dry.

If you're driving a base w/18's 245/45,275/40 is good fitment & tirerack has 4 choices of Ultra HP A/S tires....525-just over 800....surprised the A/S 3+ are just barely over 800.
That would be my pic.

Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+ is a great sticky all season tire. I've run it on the track as well, not as good as the normal super sports obviously but still pretty decent if you're not pushing 10/10ths.
Also if you're randomly spinning out in wet spots on the road your tires are not the problem, your driving is. |
