[GH85Carrera]

When I had my 15 inch wheels and the summer performance tires vanished from the market for 15 inch in the sizes I needed, I tried a few different tires. All were M&S rated, and OK in the rain and not much better in the dry. I finally gave up and bought the Euromeister 17 inch fake Fuchs so I can use modern summer performance tires. I have had two sets of the Michelin Pilot Sports (not the sport plus) and driven them in 16 degree weather and 115 degree weather. On track and on the highway in the pouring rain. They are very round and have no vibrations, and simply work great.

Tires are the ONLY contact the car has with the ground, and they do all the steering, turning, and most important, braking. With a car with no ABS, I want the grippiest tire possible in all conditions that will allow me to make a 12 hour drive on the highway in the middle of hot summer, or in the riving rain. Autocross gummies are just not safe on a highway trip in the rain so those are out for me.

I have 225/40-17 front and 255/40-17 rear, Michelin Pilot Sports. Overall I love them. Michelin replaces that tire with some newer version recently so my next tire set will be different.
