Garage List
Apex ARC-8 + PSS

Spring, and time for a dedicated summer tire setup.

I wanted a modestly-wide (for grip), square (for rotation), and lightweight (feedback and handling) wheel for summer. The ARC-8 at only 16.5 lbs works on all counts and looks good. Plus, Apex is on my short list of companies for consistently terrific customer service.

Michelin PSS 245/40/17 on 17 x 9 ET:30 ARC-8 Hyper-Black

Both the Blizzaks and PSS are miles ahead of the OEM Conti RFTs in terms of grip, heat fade, comfort, and noise.
