Am looking at changing out the crap tires on my 4 lug Fuchs for some with grip. I want to go with 205 60 15s. I have SO3s on my other car, and like them for wet and dry, but they really give no clue before they break away. With a 914, I don't want to risk becoming a top with SO3s. What would you guys recommend for a grippy wet/dry tire that gives some notice before losing grip?
Edit: These tires are for fast back road use, no track duty. Wear rating doesn't matter. |

I'm down in Pierce County. Have been very happy with my Yoko ES100's. Good all-weather performance. Haven't busted them loose on the street except on intentional power slides in the wet. 205/55/16's up front; 225/50/16's out back.
