What is the best tire to replace the stock ones?
I know there are different opinions but what are some thoughts?

 

popular tires would be bridgestone S03s and Toyo Proxies T1-S

I think like 90% of those with new tires have one of those...

there are alot others, some better but more expensive.

I personally have the toyos(on front) and also run good year eagle F1(on back). I love those tires as well, but they dont seem very popular with this crowd.

 

www.tirerack.com has a tire rating system that you can check out. I think it's based on people's experience, so I'm not sure how scientific it is, but it would give you an idea of what's out there.

I personally have 245/40-18 Yokohama AVS ES100's on the fronts (still have stocks on the back) and they seem pretty good. Didn't ever have a problem with the stocks, so my standards might be pretty low.

I chose those because they were relatively inexpensive ($182 per tire, installed) and available (in stock at Discount Tire).

I would have chosen the Toyo T1-S, but couldn't find a shop nearby that stocked them. I didn't want to wait and go through the hassle of ordering them and carting them around, so I just chose what was available.

Yeah, I'm a lazy bastard...
