Tires YOKOHAMA or SUMITOMO
I have the IceGuards on my RWD Solstice GXP and they've worked great over the past two snowy winters. I haven't noticed any problem in the wet either.
I have ice guard on my car with no issues. Handles pretty damn good when dry cold or hot
The Sumitomo HTRs are pretty good. Either the A/S P02 or the Z III. The Z IIIs are a bit sportier, and the P02s are solid all seasons with a 500 treadwear rating and a W speed rating. They also grip impressively well for a set of fairly cheap all seasons.
Just replaced the OEM Yokohama Avid S34D with the Pirelli P7. Already can tell that they are far superior. 7 db quieter than the OEM on same section of road. I got 20k miles out of the Yokohama and the inside shoulder of all 4 were through the first layer of rubber.
Put some super grippy Yokohama's on there and problem solved...
I'm running Yokohama S-Drive's in 195/40's for my 9" and the stretch is good.
I have Sumitoma HTR ZIII's on my car and they work great for a street tire. I am surprised how long the rear tires are lasting.
I have a set of 205's from sumitomo on my 17x9" rear. They stretched nicely, ride good and were cheap as dirt.
I replaced the Yokos with 215/65R-16 Yokohama AVID Ascend tires. No complaints with them. It has a very high treadwear, which we need because the Tig is our workhorse vehicle.
they are actually very poor tires. the sidewall is super soft an the compound is far from ideal. i ran these in maybe two autox's an they were just plain sad.
