What are the best tires for a Saturn Sky Redline/Turbo?
We need to replace our tires due to a thumping sound coming from the rear tires. they have 55k on them and 3mm tread, so it's time. We just want the best for the best! Any suggestions?

Re: What are the best tires for a Saturn Sky Redline/Turbo?
I've always loved Michelins. The Michelin Primacy is a very nice luxury touring tire, I have them on my SC2 and love them.

On edit, a Sky Redline Turbo may require more of a performance tire like the Michelin Pilot Exalto which don't last as long as the Primacy's, but have a more performance oriented construction and higher speed rating.

Re: What are the best tires for a Saturn Sky Redline/Turbo?
Bit late for your orignal post. I have 30k on my 2008 Red Line and not close to new boots yet, but when the time comes I am going with Toyo Proxies from my good friends a Les Schwab. Or whatever else they recommend by then. Spendy proposition whatever you go for.

Re: What are the best tires for a Saturn Sky Redline/Turbo?
I personally like the BFGoodrich G-FORCE COMP-2 A/S
some of the best ratings I've seen for tires and they are really good if you drive spiritedly, but dont expect them to last 55k miles.
