2003 Acura TLS260-Silver

Hello fellow Acura Afficionados,

Just wondering what kind of ultra high performance tires you have? and recommend for upgrading over the stock tires on the 2005 Acura TL based on price, quality, warranty and performance levels. Stock tires don't do justice to this car.

Michelin Pilot Sports A/S Version 2, Falken 512, Toyo, Bridgestone S0-3, Pirelli, Yokohama, etc.

I am looking for excellent handling, decent wear levels, quietness and firm sidewalls for exceptional cornering abilities.

Thanks in advance for your helpful replies.

you live in canada, are you looking for just summer tires or all-season ones?

I've got Michelan PS-2's and I'm blown away by their performance. They replaced the factory HPT and are a perfect match for the TL if you don't need all-season tires. They are quiet and predictable and hold the road like suction cups.

Wow, that's the first I'd heard that the factory HPTs were replaced! I have an 05 that had the HPT Potenzas. I liked them very much except that they were a little noisy. Very nice grip and nice looks. I just needed to step up to 18s and I love my Falkens.

When did that change to the factory HPTs happen? Must be very recently.

By the way, you neglected to mention the Falken ST-115s that are even better than the 512s...if you don't care about little things like snow. Again, where the hell do you live? If you're in the sunbelt or have a winter beater, don't walk, RUN to your local Falken dealer and mount up some ST-115s. You'll be blown away but your wallet won't.

I just put on a set of bridgestone re750's...I know there are probably better tires out there but so far im happy with them, more road noise than i would have thought but they stick everywhere.

I've been very happy with the Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S. Good value, good handling, nice ride, relatively quiet, and all season capability. Summer tires would improve handling but compromise other areas. I've heard very few complaints about the Michilen Pilots - but they are pretty expensive!
