hey guys, i have a 96 850 turbo that i'm changing the tires on. it currently has michelin energy mvx4's on it
http://www.michelinman.com/catalog/tires/M...retype=2&tire=5

i'm considering the bridgestone portenza G009's
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...l=Potenza+G+009

to me they seem like a good balance between price and performance and longevity. do you guys have any suggestions or have any tires that have worked well for you?

I was on Goodyear Formula1-GSD3... Double-thumbs up, especially in the rain.

Now on Michelin Preceda... So far, one and a half thumbs up...
