What brand/style of tires are you running?

Currently running Nexen N3000 245/45-18 on 18x8.5 +35 Stern ST-1 wheels. Actually quite happy and impressed for a low cost tire. I always loved my Dunlops on my old GTPs. Also had Firestone Firehawks and Pirellis. All decent tires.
 


Currently running BFGoodrich Traction T/As on my hi-po 5 stars for winter.

On my Helo Slicks, BFG KDW 245/45/18 in the GenII tread.
 
cheapest **** i could find on ebay. Nankang Sonar Ns1 I have never gotten a chance to see how well they hook. I went cheap because i know ill go through them.:D
 




What used to be 245/45/17 Nitto 555's

For those that are using the Federals or the N3000 hows the sidewalls. Are they stiff enough or do you wish they were stiffer and you wished you paid more for a better tire with a stiffer side wall. WOW im not sure how I won't get flamed for saying stiff so many times...LOL But seriously!
 
Don't regret the N3000s at all. I've paid $300+ per tire and now I've paid well under $100 per tire. Haven't really found any faults with them and would say they are near, if not equal to much pricier tires. The difference in price is not an indication of difference in performance, handling, and ride. Wet/dry grip have been great, cornering has been as good as the Firehawks I had on it previously. If I was going all out or it was a purpose built car I would probably spend more, but my GTP is a summer only cruiser that gets some spirited driving and road trips with a drag race now and then.
 
7801Monteman, I love my Federals as well. The side wall is actually pretty stiff. I like it better than some nittos I've tried.
 
235/55/17 Pirelli Pzero Nero on the stock SS wheels. Not exacty what I wanted, but needed tires really bad and got them for a steal. $280 for the set, shipped.
 


currently runnin 225/60/16's w/ yokohama avid touring on stock polished 5 stars in the winter... was never too fond of yoko's when i got the car, but they came on the car, brand new.
 
Lexani n3000's, the same tire and tread design as nexxan n3000. I just got a deal from my buddy on them. They are a really good tire, other than in the fresh fallen super slick snow on the road.
