Re: What tires ???

Really hard question as everyone has favourites. I was doing a search for tires last fall and the Vredstein reviews were quite good. I'm running Nokian NRV and am quite pleased with them. They have been replaced with a newer model.

A long time ago I was advised by a top Subaru mechanic that the one thing you want to make sure you get is a rounded shoulder rather than a more squared shoulder on the tread. The suspension on Subarus will cause the square ones to wear too quickly in relation to the rounded style.
