Try Tirerack and look at their tire reviews on your size requirements.

mt drag radials,,, of course the better the traction the softer the rubber the faster it wears.

New to the forum.

Just got a 2010 2SS RS and will need new 20" rubber next spring. Only driven in summer and looking for high performance and quiet tire. Pirelli's are pretty worn and are loud at 60-75 mph.

Any actual experience out there?

I've got BFGoodrich GForce Super Sports on my IROC-Z. I haven't driven it in awhile, but I loved them, at least compared to the old, worn-out Radial T/As they replaced.
