Sweet! Can't wait to hear your "objective" update. :-)
I've got a few more months until I'll need Summer Tires. I'm still in Winter here.
Just thought I'd look early so I can just buy them later without needing to do all the research. Thanks again!

Just looked at TireRack...Hoosier R6 look great! Nice and slick! Thanks for the info.

I'm really liking the reviews from the Continental Extreme DW and Contact 2's! Soo much more affordable than the Michelin Pilot Sport. I'm probably going to go with the Continentals, once they are "in stock" again. only $153.00 per tire for the Conti Extreme DW!! That's awesome!
