Best high performance TIRES...
 
...to replace my original stock tires on my 2008 350z ROadster?

Im looking to upgrade to the best all round high performance tires money can buy...and the widest width i can get away with. Also with rain and wet roads in mind.

Can anyone thro some names at me, i already have one in mind.

Thanks in advance
Matty

Pirelli P Zero, works well enough for the WRC...

You know there is no answer to your question. . .
the "best" really depends on your definition and everyone elses . . .
You might browse the Tire and Wheel section. . .

For me I opted for Nitto NT05 265/35/18 all around

Found these the other day. $1,900/4 is pretty crazy.

No thanks. Falken 452 for me.

Kumho XS, Bridgestone RE-11's, Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec (good in the wet I hear)

^ These are some of the street tires guys run at the track for best times.

I run the XS's myself, but they are not good in the wet. (great when dry and hot though)

go to a local SCCA event and see how many people are running them. although most harcore enthusiats will probably be running hoosiers

This is starting to turn into a thread like whats the best intake or best exhaust.

I went from REO50s to RE-11s and didn't notice a considerable performance increase. However, the Re-11s don't like the cold at all and I'm in SoCal.
