don't know, thought about the AVS then i saw the RE750, will let you know of performance when i get them

 

If you're trying to get the absolute most traction possible, skip tires like the AVS ES100 and RE750. They're second-tier performance tires. Not to say they're not really good but they're designed to be a bit more civilized of a ride and longer wearing than a true performance tire. A lot of people really like both of these tires though because the tradeoff in a bit lower traction is worth it to them because of the better ride and longer life.

For the most stick (in a non R compound), you want a tire like the Bridgestone S03, Pirelli PZero Nero, Goodyear F1 GS-D3 or Kumho MX.

 

Or Falken Azenis or Toyo Proxes T1-S.

The difference isn't worth paying double per tire (except the MXs) to me and I haven't found that folks like the Pirellis nearly as much as the Bridgestones.

 

I have kuhmo ecsta 712 on my si and i have no traction probs. When i had my gs-r i had cooper zeons on it (195/ 55/ 15) they also handled nice.

 

I hit an unexpected mud slick at about 40 MPH 1 week after getting my Dunlop Sport 5000s... and I'm still alive. I love those tires, and they have awesome incliment weather control...

 

Both the Bridgstone and Pirelli are awesome tires, but hella expensive and have low treadlife numbers... Kumho MXs though are supposed to be a killer deal in high perf tires, too...

Are the Goodyear F1 GS-D3s the ones that comes on Mustang Mach1's? Cause if they are, their performance is sadly lacking (From drives in 2 Mach1s... one with Goodyear stock and another with the MXs)

 

I have them on my GSR and they are awesome. Amazing in the rain as well as dry weather

 

Just got the Bridgestone RE750's on, they are pretty good, steering response is great, $100 a piece, have not tried wet traction yet

 

The PZero Nero? Because from my experience they compare favorably with the S-03. The other PZero tires are not as good, however.
The Mach 1 comes stock with Goodyear Eagle ZR45.

 

the michelins that came w. my car also gave way to traction in the rain, spinning me out of control. I recovered only to be facing the opposite way i was goin in the same lane. There wasnt anybody around thank god, but it was still scary as $#itt. ne wayz, i cant really recommend any brand of tire, because i put on kumho supras or whatever when one of my tires went flat. they handle great on dry roads, wet roads, but havent tried them in winter yet. if you're running 17's in the snow (which u really shouldnt because of all the nasty salt), then you're prolly not gonna get any traction control really. the reason being is that 17's tend to be a little on the fat side, causing you to ride ON the snow instead of IN. you want as much rubber as you can get to SINK thru the snow and touch the ground. use your factory wheels because they're more likely to be skinnier than most performance wheels, and get whatever tires these other guys recommend. having lived up in ALASKA for 8 years, i learned alot about how to drive in the snow (though never driven up there, my parents always gave me advice.)
