I have the Grabber UHPs in 255/55-18 as the non-winter tires on my 2004 V-8 and love them. About the same grip and cornering capacity as the 19" P Zeroes that came on the Treg originally, with much better wear and lower noise.

i hear they are terrible in the snow....that true?

Probably, since they are classified as "street sport summer" tires by Tire Rack. I have a mounted set of snow tires for winter use, so I have not had the UHPs on the powder. Their tread pattern is closer to a racing rain tire.

I use the General Grabber AT2's, their the best AT tire in my Opinion... For summer use, I use Yokohama Parada Spec X... My General AT2's have over 40,000km's on it, and show very little wear (tread warranty to 96,000km).

In that pic, the T-reg gets all weird when you jack up one corner at a time (to bleed brakes in this picture), the air suspension tries to compensate automatically when you jack up each corner, and it releases air from the suspension, that's why it's sitting so low...... The tires are practically tucking!

You do know about jack mode, right?
