04 Solara Replacement Tires?

[Sebas007]

Gr8Dane,

Is there a difference ordering from discounttire and discounttiredirect? I notice discounttiredirect is a little cheaper. This is my only way of buying them since I don't have any local stores near me? Also, the Yokohama YK520 only offers H-Speed in my tire size, 215/60-16. Do you know what the maximun high speed is for the H-speed? Thanks.

man google it !! You have all the tools you need to find it yourself...you'll enjoy the experience !

May I Ya-Who it? Will that also work?

I was just hoping for a quick answer from someone who has experience and knowledge from working at a tire company. Although you were very helpful, I would like to thank you, I appreciate it.

I recommend my tires to everyone. I've suggested them in the past and I'll keep pushing them. For something relatively cheap with sport handling, I say go with the Fuzion ZRi. They are a summer tire though, but the handling is amazing.

Discount Tire direct is discount tire's version of tire rack, a way for customers to get tires if there's no stores located near them. Like in the reviews that I mentioned it performs near the same as the michelins but a fraction of the price. With proper rotation and rebalancing at 5,000 miles you can probably expect to get near 50,000 miles out of them. I was unaware you had the 16 inch wheels. Most tires in that size don't come with a bead protector but you'll still get the same great tire. If you are thinking from just ordering from tire rack like the other guy said, the Bridgestone Pole Position is a great tire. I'm not sure off hand if it's in your size. You can do different sizes like a 225/55-16 to check other options. Good luck with finding a tire. One other thing finding a good tire shop in your area that sells a variety of tires is always a better way to go because they incorporate installation and warranties cheaper than buying tires online and usually your rotations, balances and flat repairs are free.

after 30k I got Michelin Pilot Sport A/S @ 235/50/17. A huge upgrade to the Toyos. Roughly $200 per. Excellent tire. Instant difference maker.

I'm due for a set at 41k on my 06 (factory 17's). I'm looking at the Pirelli P6 and the Michelin MXV, as all-season touring options. I would like to go with a dry weather tire, but this car sees winter duty in the NE, so I need a tire that can get through the snow too. The factory Bridgestones are decent, but they wear out faster than I like.
