Are you looking for summer tires? All-season? Winter? H- or V-rated?
Here is Consumer Reports recommendations for performance all-season tires, H-rated.

Best for drivers seeking a mostly uncompromising blend of handling, comfort, and
all-weather grip.

A top rated tire (tied with the Continental PureContact and Michelin Premier A/S) for
its solid all-weather performance and long tread life.

A top rated performance all-season tire (tied with the Continental PureContact and
