Need new tires

[Surfpony]

The stock summer tires on my S650 Whipple PP didn’t last long. 17k miles. Can someone help me out on grip, value, tire size. The stock 155’s 19’s in front and 175’s 19’s rear. Wouldn’t mind a bit wider for the rears, or even in the front as well. Any recommendations? Truly appreciated.

Sticky on the stocks!

Softer, stickier tires won’t last long with hard accelerations and stops… especially if you run different sizes and the lack of rotation….

with that said, based on my experienceronts

BACKS
- Firestone Firehawk (run these in my 01 Turbo Cobra and they handle quite well and descent priced. Would be my recommendation.
- Nitro Drag Radial 555R (don’t last long but grip and ass in the rain)
- Bridgestone Potenza (great grip, average life, Bridgestone is good about their mileage warranties)
- Pilot Sport (expensive but best all round tire)



FRONTS
- anything all season is my recommendation. Incase of rain or a spin, I want to control the steering as best as possible. I prefer a tire here with more sipes and less tread blocks. Exception of you are doing track racing (drag excluded).
- Bridgestone Potenzas
- GoodYear Sports
- Pilot Sports

Continental Extremecontact sports or Nitto 555 RII

Tires aren't going to last long with the blower so you might as well buy some that have some grip
