Best tires for in city driving? freeways %70 of the time and small roads the rest?

I drive a pretty fast car but only squeeze it out every now and then on the freeway, what is the best type of tire or brand of tire to have put on my car just driving it around town with the occasional corner being taken kind of fast or speeds around 100 on the freeway?

No they are overpriced, and michelin have shills here

>>17125977
Why are you so triggered that people prefer Michelin tires, get over it dork
>>
>>17126027

Got some objective reasons behind Michelin tires being worth a shit?

I will wait.
>>
>>17126031
Ride quality and low amount of sound, go ahead and tell me why I should get some Kumo tires instead. The super sport tires are best
>>
>>17126047

>anecdotal nonsense with no basis

Show me how they are better with numbers or you may as well just be talking out your ass, you shill

>>17126064
Tell me why some generic tires are better.

I will wait.

>>17126068

You just killed your argument with that. gg christian logic kid. No one is buying your shit tire brand go tell your manager you failed at shilling today on 4chan of all places

>>17126075
I'll be waiting for your rebuttal, happy shitposting lad.
>>
>>17126031
Would Toyota use them on their new cars if they were bad? Would bugatti use them if they were bad? Would almost every sports car use them if they were bad?

You get what you pay for with tires.

He's too autistic to see that, all he knows is spouting out hurr durr shill. Won't even suggest a better tire

Keep running your mouth without anything substantial to back it up, you are really showing just how correct you are here, keep it up it is totally working.

>>17126133
Where's your tires suggestion? Oh yeah, you're just here to shitpost and call people shills
>>
>>17125221
I bought some michelin xm2's almost a year ago and have been loving them.

Talk to your local tyre shop too, they might be able to make some nice recommendations.

>ask for tire suggestion
>get suggested x

Bridgestone Potenza RE050a if you want to never worry about wet weather again.
>>
>>17126168
Bridgestone and Firestone are well known shit tires though
>>
>>17126173

Eh, whatever.
>>
>>17126176
I'm serious, didn't they have serious recalls for many years between 1998-2009? When my dad Bought his chevy Tahoe new in dealer 2001 tmit had Firestone tires and dealer quickly took them off because there were huge problems with em
>>
The lack of facts in this thread makes me realize why I stay away from this place

>>17126188

Could they have stayed in business if they did not fix what went wrong and provide a quilt product? If they were still as bad as the negative press they got said then they would be done. Great tires can be had from both of them.
>>
>>17126173
Confirmed for best shit tires you'll ever destroy.
>>
>>17126188

Yeah Firestone truck tires had issues with the sidewalls rupturing, causing Explorers/Mountaineers to roll over. But that was back in 2000.

>>17126209
Any reason to buy Firestone/Bridgestone tires over all the varieties out there? It's not like they're even that cheap a tire
>>
>>17126229

I bought mine because I DD'd a Mazdaspeed6 in South Carolina and didn't want any issues with hydroplaning. For the price, they had the best reviews for wet weather. They were also a good performance tire considering how much a hambeast the MS6 was.
>>
If snow and ice aren't a factor, I'd go with the BFG Sport Comp2. They're cheap, long-lasting, quiet, and good in the wet, but they have enough grip and sidewall stiffness to be fun. (The last point is particularly important IMO, even when driving normally the car will feel more responsive and agile, which is always a good thing.)
>>
>>17125977
So I should stick with my ContiSportContacts, then?

Get out.

The average person would do well with those 80 dollar Kumhos. Only a few people can bring a car to the limit where Michelin Pilot Super Sports are necessary.
>>
>>17126347
Not everyone here has shitboxes

https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Continental&tireModel=ExtremeContact+DWS

Here's another option OP. They're good for all weather conditions while still providing some good surface area for traction.

I run Firestone Firehawk indy 500 235/40/18. Great summer tire.

Almost no wheelspin in 2nd @300 ftlbs
>>
>>17126370

No shit. My assumption was he has a shitbox because he needs to make a decision between PSS vs any other fucking tire.

>>17126403
Nobody wants to admit that a good set of pilot supersports is superior because some spergs are under assumption any tires will do for all purposes. OP mentioned he had a "fast" car so we can assume he needs quality tires that is Michelin
>>
>>17126418
PSS's are indeed a good tire, but most people don't wanna pay $240 a tire when they could get some Hankook RS-3's for $170 a tire and they're just as good.
>>
Honestly most big companies have a tire that can suit your needs OP it just comes down to price since you want something all around good.

Though I swear to god I feel like that guy is spamming Michelin while other give good constructive reasons for their other tires
>>
>>17126451
$125 or less for normal cars. Just because your dumb ass had to buy 20 inch rims that are 1.5 feet wide doesn't mean everyone does.
>>
>>17127241
He said "fast" car so I assumed a tire size of atleast 225/40/18. Fwiw
>>
Continental extremecontact DW

You won't be disappointed
>>
45 sidewall minimum
>>
So /o/ is full of fucking kids already
>>
>>17128045
>>17126387
The correct answers. Continental's in the business of making grippy, well designed, DD tires in various compounds. Pick DW for summer tire, DWS for all seasons, and EWC for winters.
>>
>>17125321
they wear super fast.
