Good to hear about the Potenza S-04. Those are the tires I'm picking up in the spring

I have been through 4 sets on various cars. Very stiff sidewalls, the biggest issue I have with them is that a few tire shops were unable to mount them.

ZII Star specs are good tires, but I don't think that they fit the bill of what OP is looking at. Otherwise RS3/RE71R would be on the table too.

I think they do fit the bill. Even though they are 215s, they are still wider than the stock Primacy tires. They offer great grip for hard back road driving while also offering great wet weather traction. For a stock car I think they are the perfect summer tire.

Hankook Ventus are pretty good, whether it be the Noble's or Evo's. Around $100 per corner depending on the exact tire, decent grip for stock, lets loose when you want it. My opinion for a daily tire, it's what i currently run and about to purchase again.
