Upgrading stock tires?
What do you guys recommend?
I want to upgrade my tires. I guess some that give me better handling. Not so much handling, but just have better grip, that don't squeal, or just better tires period. I don't know, but the situation is that i plan on getting Comptech Sways and also Comptech Springs to drop it. I just want to upgrade the tires to give a better overall upgrade.
Thanks

i just replaced my ****ty michelins with sumitomo htr+ (stock size)
and all i have to say is **** michelin... why am i gonna spend over 2 bills for a crappy tire when i can get the sumi's for $89 each at tirerack.com
it even handles better and no more annoying as squeal when i accelerate

What about an all season tire? Those of you who live in snow country - what tire did you buy? I don't need snow tires as most of the time, the streets are plowed.
I'm keeping the stock rims, so 225/55/16 tire size.

Does anyone have a *good* pic of the 225/55's on a stock rim? The small pics I've seen don't give me enough of a view to decide. From what I've seen, I'm not sure I like to look of the sidewall. It sort of makes the wheel look smaller, or too inset in the tire, or something. If anyone has some pics, please post 'em!
