so im lookin for new tires cause i hate the stock tires they dont grip very well and etc....im lookin for decent tires performance tires that grip very well in the dry pavement as well wet pavement and good for snow and stuff.........any one have any good recommendations on tires or links to buy them at....cause i been lookin for awhile now and having a bit truoble finding the right ones

 

Well nothing is going to be very well overall. How much snow is your car going to be seeing? How much can you spend on tires?

 

actually snow isnt really a big deal here in NY i just want something that will perform better then stock.....

 

I recently got Kumho ecsta asx's and have been using them for about 2,000 miles now. They are very good for daily use and perform well in spirited driving. In dry and wet conditions they seam to do very well although I live in socal so I can't say anything about how they do in snow.

 

Could look into the Falken Ziex ZE912

 

toyo proxes 4, i love those all season.. very nice dry and wet but heard it doesnt do very well in snow. I currently have dunlop direzza z1, excellent dry traction and does well on wet too

 

Look on tirerack.com there's plenty of reviews for all the tires.

 

also check out the hankook v12. well priced, great tire. reviews are awesome on them too. getting them next. got the hrII on my fiances ride and they are doing great.

 

go to treadepot.com. They do have great prices on tires. And their add says they will price match. So far I havnt seen any tires less anywhere else. Im buying tires any day now and im getting them from these guys.

 

^ cheaper than discount tire?

 

for what it's worth, my stockies went really bad the last few weeks with only 26,400 on the clock. kept going sideways in the rain.... not fun.

i was looking for weeks on what to get, and finally got some general altimax hp's from tire rack. $88 a piece if i recall correctly. ordered them monday morning, and they were at my house tuesday morning with standard shipping.

i had them installed this past wednesday, and i can't believe the difference! they make me really enjoy driving my car again. it feels like its floating when going down the road, and they grip pretty darn well too.

the reason i went with the generals is because i wanted a tire that was all season and that would last a good long while. these have 55k warranty, and some really good reviews on tire rack.

just my .02, and good luck!

 

I ended up buying General Exclaim UHPs for my box. Never even considered a General tire until I read the reviews on Tirerack.com. I'm glad I did. They stick like glue in the wet and dry handling blows away the OEM tires that came on the XB.

 

Just bought these from TiresDirect.com for about 415 shipped.

 

I need tires again - i dont know if i want to go w/ Falken Ziex ZE912 or the toyo proxes 4 (which is what I have now).

 

What the heck - it says we can put 235's and even 245's on the tC? Is this a missprint?

why is the a miss print, it depends how low you are, if you arent than low you can fit those sizes pretty easy. You cant fit those sizes on the stock rims

 

I think im going to get these for my new tires in a few weeks:

If anybody can give some feedback on fitment or whatever on the two choices that i gave above - thanks

 

here. to back up my reference to the inexpensive hankooks $100ea in a 225
