i voted for "other" and ride on Riken Raptor ZRs...275/40/18. they were the cheapest tires i could find ($132 a piece) and hardly ever spin on the street, even with close to 400 rwhp. im VERY pleased with them thus far, and theyve been on my car nearly a year with hardly any wear so far.

I'm running Goodyear F1 GS-D3 275/40/17 & 315/35/17 now...before that I went through two sets of Yokohama AVS Sports in the same sizes ... The Yokohama tires had a very long life .. I mean they wore like iron..but they were not nearly as sticky as the Goodyears..plus the Yokos had a very large price increase too...

Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3 up front and Mickey Thompson ET Street out back... Booya! (all while praying the stock rear end holds up with the M6)

Riken Raptor 245/50ZR16. Awsome tire to replace stock. Very quiet and overall good performance.

I just purchased the Falken 512 (tire size 275/40/17) from www.DiscountTireDirect.com
I'd rather have the OEM Goodyear tires but the Falkens only cost $416.00 for all four shipped to my door. The Falkens were difficult to seat, it took 120+ lbs air pressure before they popped and sealed on the OEM 10 spoke. I've heard that harder compound tires are more difficult to make pop on the SS wheel.
