What tires for stock rims?

Hey guys,

It seems like the last time anyone talked tires around here was 2005 or so. I have a 1994 that needs new shoes and there are 72 choices on tire rack in 225/50-16 so I figured I should ask here.

I live in socal, so dry performance is the most important. I would put my priorities like so:

Dry Performance
Cost
Treadwear Longevity
Wet Performance
Snow Performance

Dry performance is most important, but I don't want tires with an 80 treadlife either. I want something that is reasonable, will last a decent amount of time, but will give me a great driving experience with the SVX.

Wet performance isn't as important because it doesn't rain here much, and when it does I likely will leave the SVX in the garage.

Where I live we do get snow occasionally, and sometimes I have to drive home in it so I can't totally ignore that aspect of this car.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Joel
