Please recommend replacement tires for SRT8!

[stevesrt8]

thanks for the insightful post. Excellent info.

I've had a real problem finding a size that works with our stock 20's. That was one of the factors in choosing my Toyo Proxes plus 4's.

Plus I went with Danrealtors advice, as he's bought more tires than almost anybody. When you factor in their extremely BALANCED performance, long treadwear, and their super cheap price, it was easy!

I don't think you've gained much in choosing the INVO for an all-season tire there HeHateMe, it may handle the wet okay before you work all the outer tread off(which looks like it will take less than 6 months) then you are down to slicks.

What Dunlop/Michelin or Bridgestone tires come in our sizes? I'm talking something with a 40 or 45 series sidewall.

The only real expensive tire I've seen in our tire range are pirelli corsa's (275/40/20). These are the tires that come stock on lamborghini and ferrari's. From what I read the reviews from customers who purchased them are that they are a "good" tire at best.

Eric,

Never did I write that I wanted an ALL SEASON tire, I never did. I chose the INVO exactly BECAUSE it was more of a performance tire, and not an AWT so that I understood. Also, I never stated any specified preference for aspect ratio, even though I posted knowing better tires are available if needed in a close range to stock.

So, here are a few, and as I wrote in my previous post, tires and their performance, are completely subjective...but these are a few that are clearly rated better, perform better, and I also currently own a pair of YOKO Advan Neova tires and they are superior to ours for sure.


2 tires available from each of these companies:

Bridgestone- Potenza Re050a
- Potenza Re960as

Dunlop- Sportmax SP
- Sportmax01A

Yokohama- Advan Neova
- Advan ST


these are just a few, there are more...I forgot the name of the specific Michelin tires, but i'll find out and post it

Yes it is true. There are plenty of people who say the Vredesteins are the best.
