The only aftermarket sneaker that I've found for the new front end, so far:
Federal's 595 EVO
165/55 R15

I have to admit I'm not familiar with Federals, but I shall investigate. I actually had this wild thought of getting adapters made so I could run a 15 X 7 wheel that would allow me to run 225/50/15's all 'round. That way I could run DOT racing tires! But adapters can be dodgy, so I have held off on that, even though I think it would look awesome! I've had many evil retrofit thoughts, but so far I'm avoiding the temptation!

Continental makes a 175/55 R15 ECO Contact, that the Tire Rack gave a SUPERIOR RATING ( the highest rating ) in both Wet and Dry traction, 300 UTOG....Mike :thumbup:

Hi Mike,
At this point; I'm only looking for OEM sizes...
I have heard that the new fenders fit much tighter to the tire.
(Better aerodynamics...)
Some investigation will be needed.

You don't have the newest fenders on your GS; do you? :shocked:

 

[SPYD3R]

Mike, Bob...
my RS has the KUMHO's up front, they have a 740 A A rating (100,000 mile tire) and fit nice n tite... cost only $61 each...
i actually use a couple plastic wedges to prop-out the fender to get them on...

these tires have served me well... both highways and mountain roads... i have ZERO complaints about these tires... coupled with the KUMHO AST out back, it's a gr8 combination... :bowdown:
