Performance Tires for stock rims?
I really love the BFGoodrich Street radials:

Is there anyother tires out there that you guys would recommend for better traction?!
BFGoodrich has these two options:
215/40/18 & 225/45/18
Would both work and which one would be better for handling and a better fit?

Believe it or not but I bought some offbrand tires from e-bay 245/40(i think)/18 that had some japanese name. It was like $110 shipped for both brand new lol. Anyway, they were frkn awesome tires, I hooked a lot better than the stockers and they looked great too.

I don't see why no one likes the Pirelli's that are on the car, if I have to change out my tires any time soon, I would just get a better pirelli tire, If it comes stock on a Lambo, it can't be to bad of a tire...

the best street tire for the money is definately the bfg kdw series. either the kdws or the kdw2s. The tires are really sticky and will give you the best bang for the buck. my friend with his svt has gone through 3 sets and each time used the same kdw2s. they are a great tire.
and eys they come stock on the srt4

You know BFGoodrich does make these in a 225/40 series as well. I would go with the 225/40 over the 225/45 IMO. I have the BFG G-force Sports right now and I love em. They are a little bit less expensive and have a better treadwear rating. They have the same traction and temperature ratings. You step down to a W rating which is the same as the OEM rated Pirellis. The KDWs in our size is a Y rated.

Yeah, but do the BFG's actually perform good in inclimate weather??? I get snow here... and I hate taking off wheels and tires at ever change in season! I want a good ALL AROUND PERFORMER! I was lookin' into the Falken Ziex 512s.... 235/40s!
