Default Best tire in a 295 profile

So I have reserved myself to getting a new set of 20x11 rims(Vertinini seems to fit perfect) and a 295/30 series profile tire.


My choices are:


Toyo 888(I think)
Pirelli Trofeo R(35 series)
Michelin Cup 2


Don't really care about rain performance.


When I was looking at 315's the 888 was near the top of my list but I might have more livable options noise wise at 295.


Anything else out there, no drag radials.

I run 295/30/20 MPSS (with modified power levels). They aren't silent but there is no reason to run a loud tire unless you are running at the track. They aren't going to change your life on the street, IMO.
