Can anyone recommend other tire options beside what came with the car?
Mine came with:

Front Tires: Dunlop P225/50R18 94V
Rear Tires: Dunlop P245/45R18 96V

Thanks..

The G-Max are made by General tire. Good price and they have a good rating. Should much longer than the Dunlops or Bridgestones.

My 2012 came with Bridgestones. They're okay, but have a fair amount of road noise.
I would suggest you look at the Michelin Pilot Sport tires.
I have had these on my Lexus IS350 and my BMW Z3. They are really terrific tires. Good grip, decent tire life, good in the rain and are quiet.
I will be getting a set of these when my Bridgestones wear out.

Now that it's been a few years and you've been better acquainted with the G-Max:
1. are you still glad to have went with them, OR did any snags arise along the way?
2. have you learned about any other tire (or replaced the G-Max) that you feel performs better? If so, what reason(s) led you to make the change?


Thanks!
