Pros

Cons
-Not ideal for a previously finished floor (which mine was painted before)
-Can be slippery when snow/water gets on it
-Hot tire pickup?
Tile
Pros
-Easy to install
-No issues with previous finish on floor
-Can do a pattern
-Not slippery when wet
-Theoretically removable when we sell the house
Cons
-Tough to clean
-Most expensive
Rubber mat
Pros
-Middle of the road price
-Easy to install
Cons
-I'm not ecstatic about the look
-Likely tough to clean
-How durable is it?
Any experience/thoughts/recommendations? If it makes a difference, this is for a 3-car garage (about 700sqft), about 15 years old, and the floor was painted by the previous owner about 10 years ago (and has pulled up/peeled quite a bit since then).

All i can tell you is to go ahead with epoxy, from my own experience i have a 50 foot sq garage made with epoxy and it is completely worth it
