My TPM light went on while driving home from work...then i stopped by Firestone close to the place i stay...found out the whole side of my tire cracking..seperating..and leaking air...the side that facing into the car...checked the all wheels..same thing..i just have the car with this tires from Dealer for a year..it's Hankook 225/35/R19....look like just get crooked with Hankook tires ..so tomolo i got to go back there to have my 4 tires changed...so what the good tires out there? any recommends? and prices?...also if i put 235/35/R19 in there would it be good or gonna rub the fender coz it's wider?

 

I would reccomend getting some made of rubber. Possibly some Fuzion ZRi's

 

Kumho Ecsta SPTs. Handle great in hot and wet weather. I got my 225/40/18's for $99/tire from Discount Tire. Of course yours might be a bit more.

 

i guess i gonna go with Yokohama Parada Spec-2...no more chirstmas present for myself

 

Oops! I just bought Hankooks but 17's. Probably the same ones from your dealer. But I paid 540.00 for the set; I will say; my dealer gave me estimate for tires about six months ago: 1,300 bucks probably same ones I am planning on buying summer wheels and tires...probably go with something extreme summer. I like Goodyear F1's design.

My stock Yokos went 61K+ miles when people on here were complaining they were lasting 30-40K. Top it off, I didn't even rotate them like I should of.

i just got my 4 tires replaced..guess what? didn't end up with Yoko...coz nobody can get it in Socal on Saturday...weird..!,.but ended up Nitto NT 555...at least now i can see the tires are wraping around the rims..not like last one where the rims stick out on the side wall of the tiresn scatch all the times...now besides it gonna protect the rim's side wall n look more aggresive without going from 225 to 235 which gonna rub my fender on 19's...be careful with Hankook..it tend to seperate on side wall n crack...u wouldn't notice as it crack on the side that facing into ur car...if it blow in high speed..that's disaster..

 

These guys have decent pricing on tires: www.edgeracing.com

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'm hoping by then I'll have the green to go with Summer wheels and tires. Anyone tried BF Goodrich on a tC? I saw a Lexus IS300 for sale at Carmax with a set. Looked nice. They were the same size as the tC OEM. They were the rugged look type which I like in tires.

 

Ugh, that sucks.

I know what you mean when you say no Christmas present to yourself.

Just got a flat last week. The tire had about 21K on it. Stupid construction nails!

Oh and that spare tire is ridiculous looking BTW for anyone who hasn't seen it before (like myself). lol
