Re: BEST TIRES....NEED OPINIONS (AI TILL I DIE)
1. Tell us what car this is for.
2. If money is not an issue, you could go with the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 which is the best street tire out now.
3. Stick to the correct size for you car! Don't be an idiot and think that wider is better when all that matters is compound!

Also tell us how you will use these tires:
Will you be using the same tires all year round, in snow in winter as well as the rest of the year, so you need all-season tires? Or do you have another set of tires (or another car) for winter use? Keep in mind that you will get much better performance if you don't need to use the same tires in the winter, since the best performing tires in moderate to warm temperatures are so-called "summer tires" that don't do well in winter conditions.
Any track or autocross use, or just normal everyday driving?
Are you looking for the very best performance? Or are you also looking for value, so that you are willing to sacrifice a little bit of performance in order to get a low purchase price and/or longer treadlife?
