A friend of mine who is a member of ThirdGen.org, pointed me to a topic they discussed about the best all around tire. Basically, seems like the Firehawk SZ50 EP and Potenza RE730 came out on the top of their list. Personally, I'd rather have two different sets of tires: one for the track and one for the road b/c an all around tire would seem to give you the worst of both worlds. For example, drag tire: sucks in rain and street tire sucks at the track, thus, "best all around tire" sucks in the rain (and/or on the street) and at the track.
Now, over here at this board, posts on best tires usually get responses like Nittos, Mickey Thompsens, & BFGs.
Anyway, what I need to know from all of you is
Which is the best all around tire, from experience?
Plain and simple. Thanks
