I use Achilles ATR Sports 235-45-17 at the moment. Not a bad tyre overall.

I've used them for about 5000km, still gripping quite well in the dry. Wet weather is hairy without traction control on, and even with it on it will spin up (don't know many tyres that won't in the wet, unless you spend $400 a tyre).

Unless you're gonna be pushing turbo power figures, I wouldn't bother getting over the top tyres. I paid $89 a tyre + $40 postage delivered to my door the next day.

Nitto Invos are great tyres, but cost half an arm and leg lol.

Like I said, unless you're pushing a lot more power there really is no need for anything too grippy.
I still have about 85% tread after 5000km and I've ripped quite a few skids in that time also...

I'll probably be selling my FG in a few weeks anyway. Get myself a work ute if I get this job out west, screw having a city type car in the country lol would be destroyed if I hit a skippy
