Well one blew out, so I might as well replace the front pair (50k+miles on them anyways...). Anybody have any suggestions? The tires are Dunlop SP Sport 5000, and are 195/50/R16 and rated at 83VR. I'm looking for anything that'll handle better (these were pretty good though so if it comes to that i'll get another set...). Also they're M+S tires, so even if I can get summer tires I'll do with those too. Anyways, anybody have suggestions? Two things: Handling and treadwear. Price would be a factor too depending how high/low it is. But a good tire overall would be great. And speed rating has to be same or better. Also if anybody has a protege... how wide can you go wtih the tires? 205? 215? The last 2years have been lucky for me in terms of tires and wheels. My '01 Mustang GT did 45,000+miles on the stock gatorbacks AND stock brakes, and the '01 Protege has done 50,000+miles on the tires, and did about
45,000miles on the brakes before I changed them (still had meat though). Gagan- posted
