Mach 1 - Handling Pack Tires

[TTown]

So the Mach 1 with Handling Pack has 305/30/19 and 315/30/19 tires. Other than the Sport Cups, is there literally no alternative to those tires which I assume would be worthless in the winter months? Lack of alternatives is almost reason to opt out of the Handling Pack....

you can not use those tires in the rain or wet conditions they also only last about 6 thousand miles

I simply had the 305/30/19 size installed all around. Michelin makes them with a touring tread. Very quite. Excellent ride.

Michelin has the 4s in 325/30 for the rear and they have a 315/30 coming out within the next few months

I couldn't get those so I put 305's Nitto on all corners

Bridgestone has a new Potenza Sport tire you can have look at as an alternative to PS4S and also Good Year Supersport

As Atlas1 said, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires are a great tire, that is what I put on mine (as shown) 305/30-19 & 325/30 -19. Onlinetires has the best price, discount code John5, you wont be disappointed rated 30,000 mile tire and great in the rain.

What is your guess / estimate for the HP tire life?
Not tracked - daily driven - Arizona driven year round.

8000 miles. My guess, this may be a little generous.

I would sell the handling pack tires for a profit to a track junkie and put some 4S tires on it for the regular road.

seems the software and clip-art they use and Tirerack are identical. Just the CSS is different?
Sure it's not the same company just operating under 2 different names?

That’s what I did. Got the 4s’s on. Just need to sell the sport cups. Doesn’t appear to be a huge market for them though. Seems like prospective buyers think brand new take offs should be available at a 40% discount over the same set from an online retailer. Mine might be collecting dust in my garage for the near future lol

I don’t think it’s the same business. I just got a set of tires using that discount code and when I filled out the Michelin rebate they are listed as a completely different company. Even talking to them on the phone I didn’t see any connection with tirerack. Could be wrong though. Either way onlinetires had the best price by far so make sure to use that code. Thank you @fastergt350 for supplying that code when I was shopping!
