Check out the Goodyear F1 GS-D3. It's essentially a German tire, designed and I believe, made there. Don't quote me on the second part, but the first part is correct. I've been running them exclusively for the last 4-5 years on the E39 as well as the Vette. IMO they're one of the best handling street tires available. The downside is the tire life. I'm averaging 16K miles for this softer compound tire, but it's doing what it's designed for...keeping the vehicle glued to the road under any condition.

And they are designed and made in Germany.

personally, I think that Goodyear tires are too soft. I always go for Michelin

That would depend on the Michelins. I've used Michelin PS2s and they are just as soft as the Goodyear F1 GS-D3s.
