All seasons on a 1LE?
 
I don't care for the track tires on the 1LE since it will be a daily driver. Can I switch to All Seasons on the factory rims and not have any issues? I'll save my Eagles for the track and run the other tires the rest of the time.

You will want to get a set with similar diameters if possible, that way the computers won't get confused. But if you won't be doing much spirited driving it's not a big deal. I ran a set of 285/30/20 front and 285/35/20 rear Michelins last winter with no issues.

I too plan on it to be a DD. I bought a set of Nitto 555 G2's. Lots of tread depth and look to be good for rain. Plus the price was right.

Ok great!! That's what I was hoping to hear.

I may price some Nittos when I get to that point. I still haven't purchased the car yet, but I plan on it in a few weeks. I just wanted to know if I had options or if I was stuck with summer tires.
Thanks!!!

You will be fine to do that. Michelin and Continental both make excellent ultra high performance all season tires. The Michelin is the A/S3 and the Continental is the DWS06. I would run them in the stock size.

You'll be ok with A/S tires if you keep a similar tire size. The ride should be more comfortable, but performance will go down.
I spent the winter with Snow tires, it was ok.

I'd skip all season and go with MPSS or 4S they should last longer while retaining some performance.

All season tires do not like heat and will wear way faster than expected if you drive at all not like a grandma

Yep I used the A/S 3s! Very good tire for daily year round use!

I will be swapping to 4S's now that I have a set of track wheels. Maintaining OEM sizing.

If the car won't see hard winters/snow PS4S would be the best for street IMO. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable driving our cars in snow (even with snow tires) anyways :)

tires
 
Before I had my car I posted the tires for sale on this forum knowing that they would be of value to someone that tracks their car. I found a forum member that agreed on $900.00 and he picked them up the day after I took them off and replaced with my Nitto tires. Saved money on replacement and he made a good deal on new tires.:biggrin:

What size Nitto did you go with front and back? Same as you took off , and are these all season

Twoblindsheep 06-04-2017 09:50 PM

wait are you guys saying if i was to pick a different tire size it can actually confuse the computer and effect my performance?
like right now im running 17s with MT 305s. 28 tall.
