Hey Eveyone,
I am looking for new tires for my 2001 XKR. I am unsure if I want to get max performance summer or ultra high performance all season's.
I am looking for a tire that rides well with the 20in low profile tires. I currently live in Michigan so the roads are far from stellar and would like the best possible chance of serviveing a pothole (not sure if all seasons handle potholes better than max performance). I also value life in a tire (as I don't want shops constantly messing with my bbs 2 peice wheels, taking tires on and off).
I am looking at the Conti DWS06 and the Michelin pilot sport 3+ from the ultra high performance category or the Conti extream contact sport and the Michelin pilot sport 4s.
Any others will gladly be looked at.
Thanks!!

I have Conti Extreme Contacts on the XK8 (it came with them) - they seem fine on a smooth road - the car is a little jiggly on any other surface - and since it's brand new to me ...
I have the Cont DWS's on my X-TYPE - for what it's worth, I love them there ...
