Re: [DML] In need of tire advice

[Jason McKee <tymchsr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Aaron, I was in the same boat you are about a year ago. I ended up buying the Michlin Pilot
XGT H4's from the Tire Rack. I'm glad I did, the D rides and handles great with them. Its best to stick with an H rated tire since thats what the D came with, but thats only my opinion. The BF Goodrich are good tires also, but are only and S or a T speed rating. 
 
The speed ratings are important because it affects handling characteristics also, not just speed. I know the Michelins are a little more pricey, but there worth it. In the end thow, its your decision. Also look at the tred, traction & temp. ratings on the tires also, thows might give you a better idea of witch tire will last longer and handle better. Hope this helps your decision.
