I am planning on getting Pilot Sport A/S Plus from Costco for the rear tires..

what do you think? I do not track the car.. very very less spirited driving.. I want tires that are safe and have a good ride..

the pilot a/s are pretty good, but they don't last very long. also they appear very narrow for the a/s tread pattern.

my G came with them from the factory and they gripped very well for a/s tires.
if you need a/s tires, check out continental DWS.

Thanks Kenchan. I looked up continental DWS.. unfortunately costco doesnt selling them..

Any other suggestions? I dont think I would really need A/S however it does get below 40 here.. and I do drive the Z all year round just dont drive it in snow..

do they sell Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Bridgestone S04? those would be my choices for stock size.

otherwise RE11's. :)

i think all names that costco uses are "non" standard they do this to prevent price matching issues..

here are the ones they have

will it be ok to get a pair for the rear now.. and then get a pair for the front some time down the road?

or If I want to get wider tires.. can I get the same size as stock for the rear now and then when the fronts are ready to be replaced I get these mounted on the front wheels and then purchase a wider set for the rear.. this will give me wider tires in front and rear in sometime...

lol where do you get that from? I work at Costco and there are tires that are used for "wholesale" but 95% of what we sale is same name as any other shop. We don't price match so it doesn't matter to us what the name is. :ugh2: If you haven't figured out, I work at Costco in the tire shop lol. We sell the Michelin S/S's and the Re-11's or S04's. I had a friend purchase a set of the S/S's under my membership and I'm getting ready to purchase a set of RE-11's myself since we are doing $70 off a set of four Bridgestones that started today.
