Default review: barum bravius tire (replacement for stocks)

so my stockies wore out considering i put 55k in two years of owning the car.

i needed new tires and i wanted something fairly cheap. i personally believe that www.tires.com has the best prices on tires.

instead of the 185-60-15 size, i went with 195-60-15. 195s were cheaper than 185.

i ordered the tires from tires.com. they had a store in chicago. i was in and out in 45 mins with 4 new tires mounted and balanced. everytrhing came to 285.

first of all this is what the tire specs are:



Treadwear: 280
Traction: A
Temperature: A
Speed Rating: HR

ive put about 2k miles since i bought the tires two weeks ago. i feel really good about this buy. road noise is comparable to stocks, may even be quieter.

traction is superb on both wet and dry surfaces.

i like both tread design and sidewall design.

best of all its 55/tire with free shipping

if you visit www.tirerack.com, they have cheaper tires that are the same size but you also get charged with shipping.

in the end anyone lookin for a replacement for their stock tires, i believe this is a good bet.
