What kind of tires are you running on your GP?

I'm really liking the look of those spacers. I know the pictures probably don't do the car justice as they didnt on my CTSV. Now that you have them on the car are there any drawbacks to the spacers? i.e. significant increase in rock kick up on paint...

So its been awhile, hows everyone liking their tires? Im hopefully pulling the gp out of storage next week and needs some new rubber. Any updates would be great!
Has anyone tried the Dunlop Direzza DZ102? Seems to be a good tread life doing MTTS this year and need something or the trip thats going to last lol
I was looking at getting PSS before but am open to other options. I see some of you are running 205/45/17 and some 215/45/17 which is preferred? I plan on just street driving with maybe a couple autox this summer and track time on MTTS.
Also looking at the Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position.

I just bought a set, but am waiting to mount them for when I bring the car out of storage. If you are in Buffalo and thinking of taking car out next week, I should be thinking of doing the same. Concerned for that one last snow storm though...

Mines out! Well its in my heated garage but I had it out yesterday! I ordered the DZ102s today. Talked to a few people and the track instructor said they are good tire for doing 1-2 HPDE events. I guess they will make more noise and let you know whats going on over the Z2's. Getting installed thursday! Great tread life going to be way better than the runflats!

Question: are you filling with air or Nitrogen? My OEM tires have Nitrogen and I am thinking of putting air in the DZIIs just so I can adjust in my driveway if needed.

Looking at a second set of rims and tires for the GP now. Running 205/45 Conti's currently, looking at either sticking at that size or moving to the 215/40, very limited selection there though.
The V12 EVO2's are insanely cheap right now but 205/45, $252 after rebate for 4! I haven't run them before, not looking to track it with those either. Any thoughts?
I like the 215/45 selection but worried the sidewall will be too high for my liking.

It's a small visual difference. Sidewall is .42" higher and overall diameter is around .85" more.
Each tire may lessen or heighten that effect based on how the tread and sidewalls look but it was too little for me to really notice and the 215/45 have more options and less money.
