from what everybody tells me Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position. i had the s-02 and they were very sticky. my current ones, even though it's wider, feels like it has less grip, could just be in my head, but yea, you probably can't go wrong with the s-03

Depends on your price point. There are a few good tires for the money. My all time fave inexpensive tire (in 255/40-17) is Yokohama AVS Intermediate, but they're sold out, and out of production (dammit!). Guess I'll be going back to Pirelli P-Zero Asimmetrico N2s or maybe I'll try those cool Continental ContiSport Contact 2 N2s?
