Right now I have Continental extreme contact on the front and Continental Sport contact on the rear and all 4 need to be replaced after about 15 months of driving on them. What other tires out there are good for this car? Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Welcome to the site. Lots of GREAT info here. May I suggest you become familiar with the search function. Many threads on tires, brands, sizes and etc. Let me start you off here:
Recently bought vredestien ultrac sessanta tyres. Very good grip in the wet and the dry and quiet as well. Not sure on wear but reviews are promising. Stu
Had these too and was very pleased. So much so that when they needed replacing I upgraded to their Ultrac Vorti in 245/35 and 285/30. Great grip in all conditions and very goo wear.

What do the vorti offer over and above the ultrac? May look into them next time.

According to the UK auto mag testing, they have better grip and a quieter smoother ride. This has been my experience as well. I also prefer the more traditional tread pattern the have. They also seem to be wider than equivalently labeled Sessentas. More info available at the Vredestein website. Many reviews online and YouTube videos.
I am a satisfied customer after having run Michelin PS2s (on ISF), Conti's (on Posche 911)and Potenzas (on 911 and S2000). All for street. I have no experience with them on prolonged track use (high heat build up).
I"m looking into the Nitto Nt05 next time. I've seen great reviews even on these boards for the tire. Of course, I wouldn't recommned that for a daily driver. I'd go with the NT555 or invo for that purpose. I've had a few sets of nittos on cars and they've been great tires and tend to be cheap. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...05-review.html
