Best Tires For Original Wheels?
This is a cart-before-the-horse thread, I guess. I just ordered 4 tires from The Tire Rack to be drop shipped to a tire shop near my house. What I decided on after much comparing of performance and price was this one:
Firestone Firehawk SZ50EP Size, obviously, 225-50ZR16 and the price delivered was $545 for 4 tires. These were rated 3rd out of all tires tested regardless of price, and 2nd in wet traction, aquaplaning and cornering. My last 2 sets were Bridgestone Potenza RE730 (not great) and Potenza S-02 (excellent). The S-02s were about $200 ea. and I couldn't see that much again. Anybody have any experience with these tires? YEAH I KNOW... should have asked before buying... Thanks for any comments. Fred Robbins |
