64pvolvo1800 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Help me decide which way to go. I have 17" Tethys and 16" Perfo's. Can;t decide which to put on and which tires to trust. I'm not as happy with my Mich HX MXM4's as I was with my Mich XGTV4's but they're discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Burnsy Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 I just got some bridgestone turanza's and they are pretty good. I dunno on the treadwear yet tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yuck Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I'd go with the higher profile Bridgestones. I have Potenza RE960s and really like them.High profile for ride comfort, safety, and speedometer accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftermidnight Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 If you are not familiar with Tirerack.com check out the site. They have user reviews on any tire. I know they are currently running the Kumho's AST 17 inch for $71.00. which seem to be popular. Good-luck. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrTopher Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 dunlop direzza Z1s. amazing tires. incredible grip (on par with R comps), wear very little after lots of abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64pvolvo1800 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I ended up needing to buy a set pretty quick in Charlotte while I was there on business for the week. I went ahead and tried the Michelin Primacy MXV4's 205-55-16 since every one of the tire joints kept recommending them as the best tire for the car. I bought them at Discount and they were very knowledgeable and excellent pricing. I'm now looking for the 17" set of tires for my Tethys rims. Since I will probably only run those in the summer I'll consider some of the cheapies. Heard bad things about Kumho in the rain. So far I'm still leaning toward the BFG GSport 215-45-17 which I think I can do without spacers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
