Default Need new shoes for 19's.....Suggestions?

Hello all! I have 43k on my 03 and I need to replace the tires for my 19" Axis Hiros. I am looking Goodyear Eagle F1-GSD 3s and Pilot Sport 2s. Any other suggestions? I am running 245/35/19 in the front and 275/35/19 in the rear. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'd like to hear some fresh feedback. I went through the forums, but a lot of it is dated.

* Also....my car is prone to feathering. Every tire I have used has feathered.

Look into Nitto Invo's , they handle great , work well in the rain and sticky on the dry. Best of all , ive got 20k on mine now , and another 10k should be easy.

Isn't the Invo also designed for cars with increased camber?

I have heard a ton of good things about the Invo.. But not the 555 or Neogen.

Also consider the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta.

Get your front end aligned regularly - once a year at a minimum and you'll find the feathering won't be as bad.

Get some PS2s - you won't be disappointed with them.

I'm running 255/35 & 285/35 Yoko Advan Sports and love them. Did well at the road course and no complaints on the daily drive. Wanted the PS2 but weren't available in my sizes at the time. Not a fan of Nitto's or Toyo TS-1's. Talked to owners of them and they all plan on replacing with Eagle F1, PS2, or Advan Sports.
