Ive searched high and low and cant find recommended tire brands for our cars. Wondering if certain brands are better for the roadster than the coupe. Maybe quieter, smoother, better grip. Thanks!

 

check out tirerack.com

their surveys and user reviews provide tons of info.

I have been happy with every set of tires I have purchased that was highly rated on their website.

 

Since you didn't post this thread in the Wheels & Tires subsection, I've gotta ask... Did you search that section?

Yes, I did. It seems everyone is more focused on wheels than tires but I will post there.

 

If you don't need all weather or you swap tires in winter then the Hankook are excellent. I do get the traction control light a lot in the rain but haven't spun on a circular on ramp like my old set.

 

Depends on the year of your Z. If you have a feathering model just buy cheap tyres because you'll be replacing them every effing six months and when you make a stink with Nissan they'll just buy you a set of tyres to appease you and those too will wear inappropriately.

 

Or you could have the car properly aligned and that would cure the problem. Its been posted many times on this forum that the original published alignment specs were off - resulting in many cars having the feathering issue.

My 06 had feathered fronts when I bought it, alignment (and new tires) cured it. Just to be safe I get mine checked twice a year to make sure everything is good.

 

For regular driving Michelin are hands down the best tires, however they are very expensive. I've only replaced mine with the oem Bridgestone Potenza's.

As far as I know it makes no difference for the tires if it is on a Roadster or Coupe.

 

Continental DWS good price 50,000 mile warranty.. did great at tail of the dragon last year!
