I have the exact same sizes on my Supra. I decided to go for mid-range tyres - something with reasonable grip and handling, but nothing expensive or uber-soft because with my driving style they'll last about 3 weeks. Razz

Anyway, I decided on Dunlop SP3000A's for the front (same as used on XR6's so they're plentiful and thus well priced), and Kumho Ecsta's on the back. I'm quite happy with the performance of the Dunlops given the price (about $236 when I bought them); sure there are much better tyres out there but these are the best I've ever owned so I'm happy.

The Kumho's are nothing special but they hook up better than they have any right to, and given their bargain price for a tyre of that size they're actually quite respectable. They also seem to be lasting quite well, despite my silly camber and frequent sideways action! Wink
