I have the original OEM alloys 205/55/15 I'm wondering what's a good tire? I was looking into Dunlop AP 5000 and Michilen Pilot. I'm looking for a all season ultra preformance. I'm not going to race so I don't really need top racing tires rather something I can drive in year round and once in awhile drive fast with it.

Im not sure if anyone is aware of this, But if you owna celica 99 Celica GT (im only positive abut the 99 GT year modles) those cars came stock with V rated tires, so its useless in my own opinion to put anything but less than a V rated tire. The tires are the only connection between you and the road and you want to have the maximum grip at all times. So if you still are lookin for some good tires go with some V rated they might not last more than30-60 thousand miles but when you need them to work right they will everytime. Falken make a really decent V rated tire that cost for celicas in the 205/55/15 size for around 380.00 and some tax not a bad deal for what your payin for, ust thoght i would drop some newly acquried information.
