This tire is backordered with no ETA and no planned production per Dunlop. Could be many months before we see them again.

Default That's unfortunate. So you only have two Max Perf. tires in this size?

The AVS Sport is reputed to be very noisy. How about the S-03s?

I would like to find the grippiest, best-handling tire in 245 that isn't offensively loud.

S03 looks like your best bet here. They aren't super-quiet tires, but certainly much better than the AVS Sport.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/index.jsp">Tires</a></li></ul>
