Smile 997 C2S Tire Recommendations?

Hi All,

I know there are several threads on this topic, but I haven't seen one in a while so I thought I would see if there is anything new worth considering. I'm trying to figure out what route to go for my next set of tires and I'm considering:

- Michelin Pilots (again)
- Pirelli P Zeros
- Nitto Invo

I'm also open to other options and recommendation. Any thoughts would help!

Carl

I'd go with the Michelin PS2's or the Bridgestone RE050A.

I still think it all depends on how much you are willing to spend. I see people putting "cheap" tires that don't perform well on a $100k car and wonder. I've tried a wide variety of product and keep coming back to the Michelin PS2... Good in the cold, wet, dry, hot, and everything in between. Long lasting too.

That's the way I'm leaning. Cost isn't an issue...performance and driving enjoyment is what matters to me.
