Tire Details - Discount Tire Direct
What about those? Ive heard alot of good things about them?
Anyone else? Nixon just hates me.
we sell a lot of Cooper CS4 tourings at work they are a good mid range tire
The firestone FR710's are a dammn good tire!! Got a set of four bout 2yr ago.. Great on rain and not to bad in snow/ice! Highly recommended.... Price is nice too
I run Kumho Solus KR21's on my 00 GT and they seem to do just fine in anything but deep snow (duh, not a snow tire). They seem to be wearing evenly and slowly. I've had 2 of them on there for over 45K now and they still have good tread left. If it weren't for a screwed up front end alignment the front 2 would have lasted the same. Been through some pretty deep water at highway speeds and not once felt it unsafe. I haul my 4 year old around in that car so I'm kinda picky when it comes to tires. I had a set of Goodyear Eagle RS-A's that came on my 03 CV Sport and those were probably the crappiest tires I've ever driven on. Wore fast, sidewall flex, etc.. Another badyear product.
I run Toyo's on it now and the difference is night and day, but so is the price, lol...
Think I paid $90/tire for the Kumho's. Tirerack.com
Just my .02
Sumitomo and Kuhmo both make decent all season tires that provide adaquate mileage, handling and wet weather traction. Don't just spend money because of a name, too many tire compnaies out there now making quality stuff
That explains a lot, lol.. They wore out in less than a year and they sucked even when they did have decent tread on them. It got scary whenever it was anything but dry out. Nothing like having the front end of 4200lb car traveling ~60mph go a direction you can't change! Although it did make turns fun
if you're going to the peninsula of Michigan or anywhere even north in Michigan, screw all seasons and buy a set of blizzaks by bridgestone. Winters are really rough on Michigan.
I wont be driving in the winter though. Only if I have too. I will walk to class in the snow to prevent driving over salt.
Smart idea, another idea that you could do is if you needed to drive for other reasons, get like a 500-900 old beater truck off the local Craigslist. That's one advantage tithe northern states. You can get a rough shape vehicle for as much as a new set of tires. That way you can garage the prix altogether. That's what I will be doing this winter.
