Default Re: In the market for tires..opinons please

If available and you are just looking for performance then I would highly recommend the Potenza RE-11's. Dont let the treadwear scare you, they are super meaty. Keep them rotated every so often and they will last you. An absolute amazing tire in construction and design. There are some downsides, they are louder than most mud tires on trucks and your gas milage will suffer as they are heavy and have a ton of rolling friction due to grip. Doubt you care about the mpg's though. Keeping them rotated helps out with the noise for a short while but it does come back quickly. I absolutely love mine. If you decide to try them out, keep in mind they are Maximum Summer performance. I use them year round but I'm FWD. You def need to be careful when the road is cold more so than other "summer" tires.
