Have you looked through Tire Rack? Anyway I'd choose tires with really good wear rating - but they can be a bit more slippery in the rain

Check out tire rack for ideas & pricing. Personally I like the Yokohamas but I'm sure you'll get a bezillion other opinions here.

But in all seriousness, get something wide in the rear. I love cars with lots of meat in the back. Nice wide set of tires never hurt anyone.

Find out what the wideest tires you can fit on those stock rims is, and get them

then get those black ASA AR1's with the chrome lip and get a nice fat set of tires for the rear

"brandon, how many times have you done donuts?"
"like three or four times"
"oh ok"

add that to the two donuts i did and you've got 5-6 times.

we were talking about this like an hour ago after work.

back on the topic of tires...

1. browse tirerack.com for a good selection
2. I have found that Discount Tire Co. is very professional, has great prices, offers a wide selection, free rotation, balance, etc.,
3. Get something with a GOOD tread wear warranty.

if you get wider tires in the rear, it may cause more understeer.

i like bridgestone potenza for all season performance. what size are your rims? and what size tires do you have on em right now?
