    Default I'm am looking for some tires and Costco has a great deal!!!!

    I was wondering what tires you guys recommend?

    I have the Michelin MV4 but it seems like they wore faster than normal...I have a feeling that it has to do with my suspension being out of tune!

    anyways...pick the tire you have tried or have heard good things about if you can


    Thanks for the continuing help guys!

    Exaltos seem fine so far. Only been on a thousand miles in the winter. Noticed they tend to ride a bit harsh until warmed up. Quiet and smooth on stock 15" basketweaves.

    If its a daily driver, stay away. Great handling tire but damn is it LOUD. It reminds me of mudding tires on the highway.

    Why not a 225/60x15"? I doubt they cost any more than the skinny ones.

    I have Michelins on both of my daily commuters. The 92-525ia have the Exaltos 205/65/15s and the 95-530ia have the MXV4 225/60/15s. Both sets are relatively quiet with good traction on wet pavement and good wear mileage. Both sets were purchased from Costco. I certainly recommend these for your daily commuter.

    I had Pilot Sports on on my last car. They lasted almost as long as I had the car, nearly 4 years/45,000 miles. I would definately buy them again.

    225/60 is the correct size for the car.
