What Kind Of Tires?

I was just wondering what kind of tires you ladies and gentleman have on your V6's. I just bought some Cooper Zeons 245/50/16. $444.XX total including the alignment, they said my tow was out. Speed Rated 160MPH. HEHE. I cant go that fast but its just fun to say your tires can handle 160mph. They are sweeeeeeeet the handling on the highway is great. I think 255's can fit on 16's but i have never seen a 16inch rim with the 255's.

Kuhmo Ectesa (sp?) 245/55/16's.

I think it cost a little under 400 mounted and balanced.

I have some BFGoodrich Traction TAs and their handling is just crazy... though they're only rated for 118 MPH

118 is fast enough for my bank account

I was able to get mine through a graduation present. Mine also came mounted and balanced

I have the 711's and their directional and H rated (130 or so)

It's been a week and I'm VERY happy with them, their a summer tire but seem to grip very well!

That's basically what I was going to recommend. Something not too expensive with directional tread. Directional tread looks bad@$$ IMO.
