So I've been looking at tires for my 06 LS V8. It's lowered with Eibach springs, and has new stock shock absorbers and stock 17" chrome wheels.
I'm wondering what the best tire would be for the car, considering it's lowered and has a slightly stiffer ride. The guys at the tire store said I should go with a touring tire, and recommended the Toyo Versados. They seem like an ok tire, but I'm not sure if I want to go with a touring tire. I really like the beefy look of the Zeons, they get really great reviews, and the price is right (about 130 a tire!) I asked my mechanic what he thought, and he said the new Contis are really nice, and recommended those. Kinda threw a curveball in.
What would you guys recommend? Should I listen to the guys at the tire shop? The versados are more expensive, and that's whats throwing me off.. are they trying to give me the best tire, or the more expensive one.
Thanks!!
