2015 FRS came with A/S Bridgestone turanza!? What to replace with??
 
I am looking to replace my stock A/S Bridgestone Turanza tires with a fun summer tire. I don't need anything with too much grip (I don't track or autocross) Just a need a all around summer tire that handles well and also still able to DRIFT around town! I will be getting blizzaks in the winter so need need to worry about snow or cold weather. Here are a few options I am considering:

1) Hankook V12
2) Michelin Super Sport
3) Primacy HP (To find out what these are all about!)

Also if anyone wants to buy my stock A/S tires they have about 500 miles on them.

2) Michelin Super Sport

Primacy HP vs. PSS... Hmmm.... Tough choice! Rare steak or blueberry ice cream? :D

I know! I found a set of HP with 5k miles about 10 miles from me for $250. And a friend works at belle so free installation...I think I'm going to go with the HP.

the stock primacy tires are by far the worst tires I have ever driven on

I'm currently running hankook v12 evo 2. Plenty of grip but still able to initiate a very predictable drift on command. Much better in the wet than the primacy as well. Like all summer tires need to be warmed up in very cold temps tho. Plus very reasonable price wise. My set in 245/40/17 were around $450 shipped from tire rack. Minimal effect on mpg.

You're wasting your money replacing what is on there with the Primacy's

OP, eff the prius tires.

You can get a set of new hankook v12s for 400 on discount tire direct. A set of mpss will cost you 500+

If you really wanna experience the Primacy tires, you can pick up a set used for $200.

I'd go with the Super Sports. You don't need a more "extreme" tire.
