I'm getting new tires for my 1987 Mazda Rx7 GXL N/A.
They are going on KYB GR-2 in the front, and KYB Gas A Sturt in the back with Tanabe GF210 on all four struts.
Money is no option, I need all season tires that are 205/55-16

What are the absolute best?

Please explain your answer

All is appreciated!!!

 

I've been using falken zeix ZE-512. They're great in wet conditions. I've been driving on light snow too with success. However, they're not the best for summer dry grip (but decent).

I wouldn't mind getting another set of the falkens but now I'm in the market for something with a little more bite like maybe some Potenzas RE-01R.

 

For an All Season tire, check out (in no particular order):

Continental ContiExtremeContact
Pirelli P6 Four Seasons
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus

 

For a summer street/track tire, Dunlop Direzza Star Specs seem to be the one right now. I've heard nothing but good things about them at the track, and they're definitely at the top of my tire shopping list for this summer.

I'm partial to the Kuhmo ASX if I have to be on an all-season.

 

+1 for wanting the Potenza RE-01R's. i just bought a set and if you are looking to buy them i'd suggest to do so now because they are on a closeout sale at tirerack. i just bought them in a 225/50-r16 tho.

They aren't the greatest tires for snow drivng tho. great for wet and dry driving.

 

Take a look at the Yokohama YK520 from Discount Tire Co. Great all season with really good performance. Check them out at Tires.com
