    Never run out of real estate, traction and ideas at the same time.

    I love the wheels but I've never been a fan of all-season performance tires, just my opinion.

    For what you paid for the tires and wheels If the tires don't hold up you are still coming out in the long run Great looking package

    Looks nice, def post up pictures and let us know how the tires work out. I've thought about running all-season performance tires. Changing em out is just such a drag, but always worried about how they'd perform.

    Those guys can ship pretty much any tire, wheel or tire wheel combination that you can imagine. I grabbed these because even though they are all season, I'm not much into competition, just watching others compete!! I don't run the car during winter and if I get 2-3 years out of them I'm still ahead of the game. I just couldn't refuse the price...shipped to my house within 1 week!

    All season High Perf tires aren't so bad.
    If you're Michael Plummer and need to keep 700hp hooked up and attached to the road.. yeah, they're not much good.
    But if your car's not a fire-breathing torque monster, they'll be fine. I ran 'em (Continental Conti Extremes) on my slightly modded '02 GT and never had a problem. Sure they weren't quite as sticky as dedicated summer tires, but they had more than enough grip for a quick blast away from a traffic light, or getting rambunctious in the twisties. Plus they were good in the rain and reasonably decent in the snow.
    I think if you're 350hp or less, and not a complete maniac, you're probably fine.

    BoominUp's profile shows a 99-04 GT 'vert. He should be fine unless he's modded the bejesus out of it.
