Need new tires.
So I'm in the process of fixing up the 1986 GXL I just bought. I've been told that I really need different tires, and I tend to agree.
Since North Carolina can get pretty rainy and humid in the summer and slushy in the winter, I want something that can stand up to the elements as well as be good for overall performance.
Does anyone have a preferred tire brand or know someone that's really happy with the ones they have?

Of coarse everyone has a preferred tire, and everyone is really happy with there choice in tire.. it's perpetual self-************.
That being said. i've had several sets of fuzion ZRI tires, they were pretty cheap, grip well, and i am sure they make a good all season tire for the slush n' ****.
careful with that GXL, your rear end likes to slide if you drop the clutch, or shift hard mid corner, You've got an LSD afterall

You can do great research on the tire rack. www.tirerack.com

I have Falken Ziex 512's and I love them. Great on dry pavement...they won't break loose.
Now in the rain, not so well, but decent. It is an M+S rated tire but the tread pattern is more geared toward dry pavement.

I just installed a set of Bridgestone RE960 A/S Pole Position to my 91 S5 NA
Well, diff car I know.
the reason I picked this because I use the same set on my RX-8. it works very well in Dry and Rain, very light snow its fine. but I usually will replace it with my Blizzark set of wheels for that
