RE: Need Tires for the Mustang
Wayne, I'm looking for all-season's. We'll see how the winter goes here as to whether or not we need snow tires, or I'll just have the kid take my car. But considering everything, I don't want to get summer tires.
Dave, those Yokohama's look good, and they're cheaper on tirerack than they were on tires.com. Those may be what we get. We'll probably get them sometime next month. The kid is getting antsy to "remove" the rest of the rubber from the tires he has. }(

I like them, and they're not very expensive. But they're not supposed to be good in the snow. with a mustang (or a lincoln, for that matter), you should have dedicated snow tires anyway.

RE: Need Tires for the Mustang
About the snow, last year we didn't have much IIRC, and they remove it quickly. Considering the situation now where we don't really need to drive all the time (the kid usually carpools to school anyway), we may not need them. If we do have a lot of snow, I think I'd still rather get snow tires for the Lincoln and keep the Mustang parked.

RE: Need Tires for the Mustang
I have a mint (1k miles) pair of 255/45/17 Michelin Pilot tires.
Let me know if this is something you're interested in.
I had Falken GR-451 on my cobra Rs and these were the hardest, loudest tires I have ever had. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

How about the Sumitomo HTR+? W-rated Ultra High performance All-Season for $87.
Or Kuhmo Ecsta ASX? Same as above for $99.

I saw those too - but I have no experience with them either. I guess what I meant when I said the tires were pricey, is that my 1st choices were way up in the price range, and I'm leery about those in the lower ranges (unlike for the Lincoln, where I could go with a much better brand of tire without breaking the bank).
Right now we're seriously considering working out something with Jeremi. I think we're down to either those Michelins or the Yokohamas, unless someone has particular experience in this weather zone with something else.
