Looks like most are using the original type tires. Wonder what tire is being used that I did not list?

I agree.
Do you want longevity, with no concern for handling (wet/dry) ?
Do you want great dry handling (autocross) ?
Do you want great track handling ?
Do you want good dry handling, and good wet handling (daily driver) ? (me)

So I am going to replace mine with Michelin Pilot Super Sport.

I've used the general gmax In ice, snow, extreme down pour. They have exceeded my expectations. Granted I havent done any burnouts with them, but I have cut her sideways enough to hear them squeeling. They still grip very well and it looks like I have a good amount of tread left on them. I've put 17k miles on them in a year and they still are preforming awesome.

Mainly looking for long wear and resistance to cupping. Don't to performance driving very often and even then not real hard driving.
