I want to change out my runflats for more traction, what's the best/stickiest tire for the 18" 162's?

Potenza RE01R, Pilot Sport PS2 are both good tires.

thanks guys, because with my tune traction is hard to come by.. thinking about getting an LSD, but pointless if my tires don't stick..

do you need to buy a brand new TPMS kit if you're only replacing tires and keeping the stock rims?

No need to replace the TPMS sensors if you are only replacing the tires.

The 09 335 Sport comes with them and they should be the same as the regular PS-2's just more weight and more money.
