Don't buy cheap tires
What kind of tire should I buy for my Camaro
Follow this one simple rule: If you do anything fun with your car... please, don't buy cheap tires. This example from my 370z got a little hot. The ride home was, um, bumpy.

Just because it says "Summer", the tires are not meant for track duty on a 3700lb car.

This "was" a Sumitomo HTRIII. Figured i didn't have enough horsepower to melt them. I did.
