I don't care what people say about my choice of tires because in the end I know what my limitations are and what my goals are for my car.

I understand though that you shouldn't also just get the worst tire out there just to save some money.

I'm happy with these Comp2 A/S's and I was very confident going 80 today in the rain and it gripped pretty well on the highway.
it's not about going to the track. it's a sports car that has enough balls to break traction on crappy tires.

the underlying message is you get what you pay for. you gonna get cheap tires? you're going to end up paul walkering yourself if you ever decide to get heavy footed.

getting good tires still won't stop you from paul walker'ing yourself if you fail to control your car but atleast it won't be a mechanical failure just pilot error.
