    Hey guys i'm looking at getting some new tires. I have Eagle GTs now and i like them, they have good grip but honestly the tread wear is not too good, i go through them very fast. I just got a new job at a c&c shop and will be doing a bit of highway driving and i would like some good tires that work well in the rain and have a decent tread life. Any input on tires you have or have looked at would be great!

    Not sure of your budget, I personally have grown to love Bridgestone Potenza REAS960PP's, The current verson is a 970

    What size tires?

    Stay away from directional tires if you want long tread life.

    I have continental extreme contact DW. They have really good grip and tread life seems good so far. I got them on sale on tire rack for 730 shipped.
