Default Tires For Stock 2001 VDP

What tires would you recommend. The car currently has Dunlops and they're okay, but its time to replace. I've heard the OE Pirelli P6000 aren't great. Are Pirelli P6 the replacement for P6000? Anyway, I'd appreciate your input.

What type of driving will you be doing? Will it be driven during the winter at all(or do you have dedicated snow tires)? Are you looking for an inexpensive tire, or are willing to pay a bit more for something that has better performance?

No winter driving. I'm just looking for the best tires for the stock rims. Continentals are looking pretty good...

I just put on a set of their DW tires. Seems to be good thus far.

I have BF Goodrich Advantage on my car. Quiet, good wet traction, "V" speed rating, seem to be holding up well as far as tread life goes.

Cheers
