hey, i was looking at getting new wheels for my pony but i dont know what tires would be best for it. i would like to find tires that will handle well in all seasons and will be able to handle high speeds. i would also like to have good tread life as well. any suggestions?

I used to run Kumho Ecsta Supras. They were a very good tire, handled and wore very well.
Stlwagon, I dont believe that model Kumho is available any longer. I know it isnt available for the 16 inch rim.

Foremost, Saleen21, you need to get a tire rated for the speed. You didnt say if you have a tune with the speed limiter raised or removed, or simply run stock.. Typically, tires rated for high speed and excellent grip have a trade-off with tread life.

I have P3000 which are H speed rated. They have very good (not excellent) handling and traction on dry pavement and are warranted for 85,000 miles. I can't attest to snow and icy roads becuase we dont have those conditions where I live.
well, the wheels that i am getting will be 18x9. i would preferablly not want to have to tune them to the speedometer though
