Either the cooper cobra or mickey thompson st's for the tread look, i like my SR's.. Of course we are talking about 15 inch tires and can handle the rain. I have been in he rain many times and do not push it in any way on the SR's just to be safe. Why can't a manufacturer take the above tires and change the compound for a stickier tire. Plenty of options for 17 inch tires so why not. A 2 or 300 UTQG would be great for the street. My understand on Avons is they do not last very long and age faster 10 to 15K . I really do like the billboard look for sure. Go to a large Cobra get together and see their choice. Every once in a while billboard or Avon show up in 15 inch tires. I will probably go with ST's or Nitto on 17 inch rims which will solve problem and sell 15 inch rims and less than Avons and new rims to boot. Stencil Goodyear is an option though difficult to get the right patina.
Goodyear now own Cooper and MT so make the tires stickier. Already have the molds. Just need to get to the right person. If i only drove 1500 miles a year who cares. I am now 5000 minimum so rain will be possible. My 2 cents!
