    I know England is perpetually cloudy and drizzly, but I can promise you that the US gets hotter, colder, wetter, and drier, if not usually all in the same region.

    I have the GS-D3s in 225/40ZR18. I really love them. They're very sticky and the wet traction is so good that you almost don't notice the difference when it's raining.

    Have you tried: Tire Rack - Your performance experts for tires and wheels ?
    What's the make and model of your car and have you tried any other tire manufactures?

    Thanks JDS, I'll take a look at them. TBH my car Is far from fast so perhaps I'm thinking too much about this but I do like It to handle well. Alot of the reviews saying there bad are people using them on heavyer, more powerfull cars than mine so perhaps I'll give the T1R's a try If one of the local garages has them and will do them at a good price.

    Some of the best-handling tires I know of...

    Kumho XS. (not the ASX)

    Dunlop Star Spec's

    Bridgestone RE-01 or RE-11

    Hankook RS-2 or RS-3

    Michelin pilot sport PS2

    Yokohama ADVAN Neova

    Falken RT 615's

    The tires above are for hard-core enthusiasts because they sacrifice almost everything for grip and handling.

    Noise, treadlife, sometimes wet traction, all suck with these tires.

    But they are crazy-fast.

    Past: Vector 985, RX 65, a couple Bel "express" units, ZR3
    Present: X50 Rev 5, 9500ix, SRX, V1 3.864, ZR3, ZR4, LP 905 (Tied to the 9500ix), C100, STi-R

    Whoops, I haven't checked this thread!

    I drive a 2000 Nissan Maxima SE.

    I have not tried any other tires except for the Coopers that came with the car when I bought it in '03. I'm considering picking up General Exclaim UHPs next.

    I hear the UHPs last a very long time and offer 6/10 performance @ a very reasonable price.
