michelin pilot, MXX3.  
they have a 215/45-16 tire for 202 a corner.  that will be by far, the
BEST $800 you will EVER spend.  

in the first guy to shout out praise for the sp8000, but this tire is by
far the BEST tire street tire i have ever driven on.  dare i say it, it
almost puts even the 8000 to shame.  if they came in 15" (okay, now 14"
cause i dont have any other wheels) i would never buy another set of
sp8000's.  there is a cheaper and lower ranked pilot tire that comes in
225/40-16 (As well as 195/50 and 195/45 15"), and even they are a
*little* better than the 8000's.  but its nowhere near enough to justify
the $120 vs. $73 price tag in 195/50 though. 

food for thought.
