Pilot Sport 4S. If you have stock wheels and want to go a bit bigger get the 255/35-19 and 295/30-20.

Great tire.

Good recomendation for the PS4S. Does anyone out there have any comments about the difference between Pilot Sport 4S or the OEM Pilot Super Sports. Seem like basically the same tire with a new name? I know PS4S does not come in a run flat. That may be the only difference that helps with ride quality a little bit.

I agree w/ vortech347 on the 4S. Mine were the OE runflats from 2019. Last summer I got the newer design 4S and am very impressed w/ them. They are not RF which probably itself helps improve ride. But the tread edge is also more rounded where it transitions to sidewall and that really helps eliminate the tire following road crown and tramlining all over. I got these as a nod toward autocross performance which I would say was not a great idea. But they are stock 19/20 sizes on OE wheels and I also have Continental DWS in 18/19 stock sizes. I have always been happy w/ the Contis on the street but I think the Mich 4S are actually nicer.
