Here's the short of it. Destroyed a rear conti at a skid pad school (tread blocks tore off tire to expose belts) so need a new set of street tires.

I run hankook RS3s on the track, but need something for around town. I was going to buy the Cooper RS3-S for about $600 the set but discovered that Sears Auto was doing a crazy sale. I just placed an order on Goodyear Eagle GT, listed as ultra performance all season for under $400 for the set after rebates. That frees up some cash for more track tires and brake pads.

The main complaint is people are getting low mileage on these tires on tire rack, but given our hp at the rears, I never expect more than 10,000 miles anyways.

Anyone go to all seasons and lament their decision? I keep trying to convince myself that tracks are for driving really fast and those max performance summer only tires are going to be wasted on miles of highways.... Thoughts?
