Tire Recommendations

Need 245 50 ZR16 tires for my car. Currently, SLP is no longer doing take offs so, that ends my source of cheap tires. Any opinions are welcome.

I feel your pain........I have had to go to using Kumho's Escta (SP?) model. I spent about $400.00 on the H-Rated series. They have been pretty good with about a years use on them. I think I am going to go with Nitto Drag Radials in the future.

All Season? Like....Snow compatible? And Be ZR or Y Rated Only?

Cheap? Pirelli P7000 looks cheapest. $96

Step down the ZR rating and it gets cheaper and the selection goes...VoooOOOP!

I was thinking of Z rated tires. Mainly because I drive it hard in the summer. This would be a winter project so I could wait if the prices will drop
