I'm in need of new tires for the Talon, the OEM Goodyears are quite toasted.

Does anybody have a good stock size tire they'd recommend?

I was looking at maybe the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDWS, the Continental
ContiExtremeContact, the Kumho ECSTA KH11, or the Kumho
Ecsta MX.

I would strongly recommend Falken tires. I absolutely love my Ziex 512's and am planning on getting the Azenis for my autocross wheels. They have this neat little rim protector feature too that has actually saved my wheels on my GST a few times from some nasty curb rash. Oh yeah, and I got the Ziex 512 205\55's for 16's for 200 mounted and balanced. They are extremely sticky, great in wet weather, and very aggressive looking. Ide say the only drawback is that they tend to throw alot of stuff up onto the car.
