2008 Bullitt - Looking to replace factory tires with new

I have a 2008 Bullitt -- Looking to replace tires for summer fun -- need advice on best tire for dry and wet payment --- traction important as it rains a lot here in Cleveland.

Thanks, Paul

Where in Cleveland? I'm on the east side in Mentor.

What kind of driving do you do? BFG KDW2 get good reviews around here, so do Nitto 555. Tirerack lists Firehawks and Continental Extreme as the top rated summer tires.

For your requirements, I'd be going with the Continental ExtremeContact DW in 255/45-18. In fact, that's what will be going on my set of stock 18" Bullitt style wheels later this year.

I just bought a set (4) of Nitto Invo's and I really like the performance. Check'em out on the Nitto sight. I picked them for what you discribe; wet, dry, and for me some autocrossing.
