Recommend new tires for me!

[The Sauce]

I know you guys obsess about this stuff so lend me your opinion. My prior set was the stock Michelins and they're done.

 

[randomlinh]

BFG KDW2's! heh... you never said what kind of tires

 

[The Sauce]

Ok...let me be more specific then. I have snow tires so snow performance not a big deal. I want a moderate priced, quiet, decent (but not necessarily great) performance, all season tire in the roughly $150/per range.

TOYO PROXES 4.

Discounttire.com

Put in your year, make, model and look at the best sellers - pick from those.


That being said I was looking at tires this morning for my Corolla... probably going to get some Kumhos. They've always been a whole lot of bang for my buck in the past.

What do you want from a tire?

 

[imported_vr6]

i've been using falken ziex ze 512s all season for about 4 years now and they are good.
they were rated #1 by consumer report so you can't go wrong. i just ordered another set for myself since they were on sale for $75 a piece for 225/45/17.

go to www.edgeracing.com

i don't work for them but i've been shopping for tires there for years.

Kumho and Hankook for best bang for buck. Yokos, Toyo, Nitto, Michelin, BFG, Goodyear..ect for better performance at a higher price.

I got Kumho SPTs 235/45/17 on my Accord.. though the wheels are 17x8. I assume yours are stock at 17x7? Anyways, I'm liking them. Only wish the sidewalls were a bit stiffer.

Oops.. they aren't all-season. :/

I like the Falken 512 also. They fairly quite and inexpensive tires. You maybe able to find it cheaper Here. Because they offer free shipping and no tax depends which state you live.

 

[randomlinh]

ok, my recommendation is out the window then... they are loud as hell But they stick like no other.

Got the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S. Unfortunately I bought from tirerack before looking at discounttires - would have saved me $50.

Goodyear Comfortreads ... they are really nice on my convertible as they are very quiet tires, good grip.

Not buying Michelin would have saved you $50 too. :laugh:

I had the same tires on my Maxima. I loved them.

since you have a dedicated set of snow tires, there is NO REASON to buy all seasons...you should be getting summer tires to handle the dry and wet...

Without this answer, it's impossible to give any relevant recommendations.

Some of you seem to be missing that part.

Dang...that's a lot of money for tires on an Accord...no offense

I'd get sub-$100 Kumho Ecstas or Falken Ziex's and call it a day

 

[imported_vr6]

$150 is too much to spend on tires imo. but i am poor so it might be pocket change to you.

you can't go wrong with michelin pilot sports.

It's not just an Accord - its the EX V6 6-speed coupe...tires are 215/50R17's Can't get those for cheap. The least expensive set of any quality was about $115/per. I don't buy cheap tires...general rule of thumb.
