Tires For M5
Tires For M5
Looking for recommendations and experiences on tires. I might do a few track and autocrosses, so experiences in that realm would help.

Well I had Goodyear F1 GS-D3's on the car before I sent them back to discount tire because they tramlined all over the place. They followed every grove in the road as if it had a mind of its own. I now got myself Yokohama AVS dB S2's and so far, they are not only super quiet but they dont tramline! Thank god! As for the Bridgestone S03, doing my HW, I read they tramline also so I stayed away from them.

Had the Bridgestone SO3's and I'm now on my second set of Michelin PS2's. Much happier with ther PS2's. The SO3's had great traction and a very stiff sidewall which was great for cornering but lousy for comfort. The PS2's are much lighter, quieter, and more comfortable with equal grip and have held up decently at the track and auto-x. One caveat with the softer sidewalls of the PS2's is that they are more prone to rollover during agressive driving and I needed some decent front camber to keep off the shoulders of the tire (~1.5 degrees).
