New Tires?

Hello all,

I have a 2008 G37S and will need tires soon. I was hoping to get some recommendations on what kind of tires I should get? I don't think I need super high performance tires... I would like to keep the look though with the low profiles that have a good price tag on them.


Any ideas?

Give all season tires that come in identical sizes a try. If you find they don't have enough grip, go back to a summer tire like the factory tires.

Continental ExtremeContact DWS

I've done like 2348723084328404 hours of research on this and I have not heard a single bad thing about this all season tire. Take a look at it's rating and feedback on TireRack... if those numbers are spot on this would be the perfect all-season tire giving you the best of all 3 worlds.

Summer support, cold weather/rain support, and snow support.

I would probably label this as the best all-season tire for our car.

Of the ones available in your oem 225/245 sizes, I'd look at the Yoko Envigor's. Great all around tire. The DWS is good as well, but would have to use a 245/45-18 all around.

all season aside, would you recommend these or the Bridgestone RE760?

Sure! The 760 is a great tire. Many here have them as a dd tire and have not heard a complaint customer wise yet. Top of its class for good reason.
