New tires for stall
Hey guys, I just got a ss4000 yank installed in my car. I was looking for a few opinions on tires. I have the stock SS wheels. I drive the car about 100 miles a week and in rain once in a while.

Tire Suggestion
I had really good luck with the Bridgestone Potenza 750s. They lasted a long time, had great road adhesion and superior hydroplaning resistance. However, I had heard the new 760 are not as good. On my 2000 SS the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS tires were crap and expensive. I tried the BF Goodrich T/A G Force KDW tires twice and they were a modest improvement.
I too drive my SS a 100 miles a week and wish I could just get another set of 750s. Continental DW were suggested by a Trans Am owner, plus they're cheaper. Maybe someone would be willing to donate Michelin Pilot Sports?

^Those tires can be used in the rain as long as they have enough tread and the treadlife is better than other drag radials. Results have been mixed though, not good in my case. My car doesn't launch very hard at all (stock converter) and I still couldn't consistently hook too well with the 555Rs when I had 3.42 gears. Not sure why.
