Its that time, I need new tires badly. I basically have no tread left. I would like tires that are quiet because i lowered the car and i can defiantly hear the road.
What tires are the best? Thank you |

...how many miles did you get on the OEM's? I'm getting older I guess but I'd swear it seems like you just bought that thing.

My tires came from this category Tire Test Results : Are There New Standards for Standard Touring All-Season Tires? more options here Tire Test Results : Testing New Standard Touring All-Season Tires
I also had my eye on some Michelin Hydroedge but couldn't find them at the right price |

Just checked out a local tire store (Big O) in OKlahoma for the Nitto Motivo. These little guys list for $119.00 each, before mounting, balancing, blueprinting, porting, polishing, and anything else they can find to add to the price, LOL. Specs look pretty good on the 215/50R/17. See below.
Would like some feedback on "road noise." I'm not wanting to duplicate that mess, again, that I now endure with my ContiPro's. Speed RatingW Temperature RatingA TractionA Treadwear560 UTQG560 A A Load Index95 Load RangeB SidewallBLK Sect. Width215 Sidewall Aspect Ratio50

Update:
Well I purchased the tires yesterday and I got the Goodyear Assurance Tire. It is originally $180 a tire but got them on sale for $140. Total came out to $800 with alignment and balancing. Warranty is 70K Miles. I like these tires, they are very quiet and handle the road pretty well. Defiantly would recommend these tires. |
