Cup 2's if you wanna stick with Michelin, or Toyo R888R are both about the best street tire options before going slick.

With my power level, I still spin my R888Rs, but without going full on slicks, I think they're great tires. They can be noisy (I guess) from what I've read, so if that bothers you, you might ant another tire. It doesn't bother me because I can't hear anything over my exhaust. But I like them!

I guess then my question is: what are my options for below 40 degrees. Because in ATL, December, January and Feb can be in the 20s and I don't want my tires cracking or becoming dangerous. I will obviously not be driving like an idiot in those conditions but I can't seem to find an all-season option. Thanks for they help all!

My 4S's performed fantastic for 28,000 miles and I live in NC. I prefer the stiffer sidewall of these SS 1LE Goodyears, but those did great on my 17 Camaro SS. No tire is gonna hook with I would say more that 450 wheel as I spun without issue with 50 whp extra.

That's gotta be some powerful exhaust then, or you never use the overdrive gear(s)
