    I need to put 4 on my 2003 456M GTA. In SoCal so no snow worries. Lots of suggestions from the past, but what is the advice in 2022. Available are Michelin Pilot 4, Conti extreme contact sport, Nitto 555 in that order of expense. Most times the most expensive is the best, but not always. Let me hear your opinion please.

    Im a Continental fan. They came on my 95 GT. I put them on my CL500. Good ride, good performance and life. Nice balance between price point too

    Hey I have a 2003M GTA too and am also in So-cal !

    I went with the Conti’s as there was no other option.

    Thanks guys. Conti it is. I agree the price point is very reasonable and what I want is a good performance tire, not a track tire. I'm in Palm Desert. Where are you Mirek? I'll probably go over and see my race buddies at the SVRA event at Fontana next weekend.

    Awesome, I am in Fairfax district of LA off Melrose Ave.
    Hey we used to have a place (through her folks) in Palm Desert (Ironwood).

    Very cool, have you had the car long ? Where do you service ?
