Here are OEM Conti 5p and Michelin P4S in 235/35/19 mounted on VMR 710FF 19x8.5 et45. OEM Conti’s are a little stretched. But not bad. I ran the wheels that way for two summers before installing the Michelins. The Michelins run a little wider so they are squared off more.
Went with Michelin Latitude X-ice in stock 18\" size, on Sport Edition F5 wheels. Package from Tire Rack - they come mounted and balanced at not charge, and Michelin had a $70 rebate on 4 tires. Wish we'd had more snow this year! In the little we had they worked very well.
I have Michelin Super Sports on one of my cars and Continental GXs on my other, faster car, and I vastly prefer the Michelins.
running 40psi, when i go to the track, i keep it at about 38 and check and let out hot air as i go each lap, ill go from 35 to 50*f after a few laps so i always am messing with air. 205/40ZR-17 SUMITOMO HTR Z II 17x8 Axis OG Europa SDC
I got some $50 Sumitomos on Tirerack for my current beater because I couldn't be bothered to spend more money on this car. Nevertheless, they have not failed me in the wet, snow or sleet.
Went with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S! They are great tires though.
I run Nitto 555 G2's during all but winter, and this year I went with Pilot Sport A/S3+ all-seasons (due to frequent driving in mild snow during work trips) and I'm quite happy with them.
I daily Michelin Pilot Super Sports on my Focus SVT. They are so worth it. Yeah they wear out after 10-12k miles but they have like a 30k or 40k mile warranty so I get a new set of PSS's every year for like $150.
You can drive them in the rain like it isn't raining at all.
Sport Cup 2's are great tires, I have them on my RS. If I could do-over though, i would go with PS4S. Sure, they "technically" aren't as fast around a track, but for the 99.9% of street miles you put on them they are much more livable on a daily driver.
Another vote for the Continental DWS... I have had them for front tires on my '06 for about a year..only reason I haven't replaced the stock rears is because they still have tread left at 73K!(they are Michelin Primacys which are a nice tire but only under dry or wet conditions..tread life is awesome, but they're terrible in snow)
