What rubber is everyone riding stock 18's on? I'm looking for something comfortable and going to give me grip when im running down the line or in the corners. something price reasonable also. The BFGoodrich T/A's are about gone so I need to start researching for something new that will give me some good traction.

Thanks

I highly recommend Pirelli P-Zero M+S. Had them on my '03 Mach 1 and could not believe how well they stuck - even in rainy weather.

The Nitto 555 is pretty good, the 555r DR is even better.

Stock 18s

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, pricey but fantastic.

I always used the Nitto NT555 on my 95 Gt and thought they were pretty good tires. Unfortunately I looked online and it doesn't look like they make them in the size to fit my '06 with 18's. Now I'm not sure what I'm going to buy.

I use the ones below.. I got them discounted through Mavis b/c my father owns a body shop. Costs me 200 per wheel to have them put on and balanced. I LOVE them. Night/day compared to stock!

I'm running Toyo Proxy T1R's, 255/45/18 up front and 285/40/18 in the rear. Don't know the cost, came with the car, but they they track like a slot car. I live in Vegas so I don't know how they would handle on wet roads, but in the dry they are pretty unbelievable. I'm still pushing to the edge of the envelope on lateral G's because I just got the car a little while ago and getting used to it.

This coming spring when it comes time to get new tires I think I'm going with either the Nitto 555s or BFG G-Force KDW2s...
