Multiple Part Question
I have EXCESSIVE tire wear on my right from (TT225Q). Also believe excessive resonance when driving at certain speeds. Anyone else run into this. OK, part two.
I will probably end up replacing all 4 tires (once I figure out why the right front is wearing so badly). What were YOUR picks for replacement tires. I do a lot of highway miles and no autocrossing or racing with the TT-just take it out on the road an enjoy it. Would appreciate your tire recommendations

Dunlop SP Sport 9000's work great on the hiway.
They do not offer the precision of the MXX3 or the Bridgestone S03. They do however, ride well, and are quiet until near the end of the tread life. They refuse to hydroplane. They do not tramline. I routinely fly below the radar over the Siskiyou mountains in northern California (the most excellent 140 miles of interstate on the west coast) and I have never felt anywhere near the limit. They are somewhat laid back, but comfortable, easy to live with, and excellent in inclement weather (great in rain, good in snow, avoid ice). I love to travel great distances on these tires. I just put the second set on my car.

Re: Dunlop SP Sport 9000's work great on the hiway.
Thanks for the suggestions. I had been leaning towards the Michelin Pilot. Have had Dunlops on other cars in the past with mixed results. But that was awhile back. Will definitely consider as the type of driving you do is EXACTLY the kind I do. My personal favorite road is highway 50 in Nevada. A mix of long straights with a series of divides where you climb to 6000 or so feet through swoopy curves. Great road, good pavement, minimum traffic
thanks for your help
