Any tire advice for ST2 Miata?

Been out of the loop for a while. What's the current 15" weapon of choice? Is everyone still gaga about the Toyos, or has the herd moved on? I liked the Dunlops a year or two ago and they're even wider now.

Will Kalman's deceptively titled thread in PP proposing a "new local class" is an excellent example of why your suggestion is not working for me.

wanted: secure garage space for classic car

a *big* classic car, specifically a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Seville. I'm currently paying $400/mo for a drive-in storage space in Azusa and it seems like too much. Someplace close to Pasadena would be best. I really want to keep in the habit of driving it on a regular basis.
