    cant believe i didnt see those. they look great and seem to be on par with the paradas in every way, even the price!

    I also had the Hankook RH06's and I can say that they are one of the best street tires. Good traction and very quiet on the highway.

    glad they worked for you too and thanks for the response. that goes for everyone else also. but i did some more research and came accross a tire that i just cant steer away from. they are a bit out of my price range but they are supposedly worth every penny from ALL the reviews ive read. plus they were designed by porche and come stock on a lot of high end sports cars. the Michelin Pilot Super Sport. they come in a TON of sizes including the wide low pro size i need. they should stick like a dream. so i am saving up for a set right now. i will definately let you all know how they perform. but anything has got to be better than what i have now... i dont personally like the design all that much but at this point, i could care less. i need something that can keep the power on the pavement and looks is at the bottom of the list now.

    so i scored a set (2) if the super sports today from a dude off craigs for 100 bucks!!! FOR BOTH!! they are 400 a piece new!! one is almost new and the other is maybe 60% but i figured, 100 bucks plus install/balance isnt bad for a test run. ill get to see how these babies perform and if they are what they are supposed to be, ill pick up a pair of new ones. i cant wait to get these things installed. went with 295/30/20 gonna be a tight squeeze but it SHOULD clear... ill keep you updated on how they perform.
