    Hi everyone.
    Sorry if there is another of these threads. I searched a little before posting and didnt find much. My GXP is going to need tires pretty soon. It still has the oem bridgestones. I want to keep the stock sizes to keep it looking the same. My question is what tire are you guys running keeping the oem sizes and that is also all season. I live in wisconsin so an all season is a must. My cousin bought 18x7 gxp wheels for his GTP and is running goodyear ls2's i believe and he likes them but havent heard much from them. Or should I run the same size on all corners? If so why or why not?

    Hankook's are great from what I hear. I haven't had mine long enough to know for sure. But for all weathers I had some n7000's before these and they were awesome in snow

    Run a 245/45/18 tire all the way around, it will be cheaper and your tire selection goes way up.

    Why do u have such a hard on for 245's when the front wheels are bigger than the rear sure they will fit and can be rotated but have you seen a Gxp with front wheels on the back it looks utterly retarded if they were aftermarket same size wheels sure but staggered wheels no.
