Michellin is also a good company.

Azenis are really good. Kumho Excsta Supras are a great tire and a great buy.

Street: Pirelli 275-40-17 P-Corsa's on the rear and 235-45-17 P-Zero A's up front... the combo works great

Track: 16" front and 17" rear Hoosier A3S03 255's & 225's...nothing better for the track

I have Dunlop SP Sport A2's and they are great in the dry and in the rain. Great buy. I like the Michelins too, but they are definitely pricey.

Yeah, I think the Khumo Supra's might be the best tire/value...I had just put a pair on front and was in a major down pour! Buckets of rain coming down...
They just went right through it like it wasn't even hardly wet out...
