Tires MICHELIN or NANKANG
I have nankang econex'es on my project car. Honestly they're fine. Drove them in the rain recently and never lost grip.
I would also recommend looking at the Nokian one and Michelin defender2.
The michelin defender 2 is rated for 70 or 80k miles, and is generally very quiet.
Upgrade them to michellin pilot sports all season worth every penny. More grip for that torque!
I've been on the 245/40/15 CRS V2s for all this season - on the front of a FWD (A052s on the rear). I got somewhere around 120 runs out of them and they felt pretty good right up until the end.
I ran a pair of 225/45-15 CRS this year. Good grip, didn't mind getting hot, wore quickly.
If you run 17 inch, go for 215/45R17. Get the Michelin Pilot sport 4s or 5, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asym 6, or Conti Sportcontact 7/extremecontact (depends if you're in EU or US). Those are the best allround tires you can get. 215/45 offers a bit more contact and a bit more comfort
I swapped my 22" Pirelli Scorpions with the 22" Michelin Defender MS/2 115H. The ride is much more supple, and they cost far less than the Scorpions, while the efficiency is nearly the same (within .14 kwh/mi).
Great bit too soft and if you spirited drive these will be gone in a year with ropes showing. I swapped to harder compounds
These Primacys should be recalled from Michelin or at a minimum they should cover the costs to replace/remove foam balance etc.
