The Pilot Sport A/S is designed to minimize dry and wet driving compromises while maximizing all-weather traction" at 350$ how long do 20 tires last? frankly I dont see the need for Z rated tires where I live, I'll never track the car ..... any other size or tire recommendations for this climate and ab d road conditions?

And at only $111.00 each tire, how much better can you get? Seriously though, these out perform most tires even ones beyond $300+. Very long tread life btw. Compared to the Michilins, why not save the extra 200+ per tire for a VERY MINIMAL edge? _____________________________ 08 Mustang Saleen 3-Valve NEW BMR UCA 05+ for sale http://www.mustangforums.com/m_5235895/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#5246374 (in reply to Z O O R O P A) Post #: 6
