My girls car is rolling on her stock Michelins with 15" Special Editon wheels off a 96 Accord. Hers is a 94.

Wondering what kind of tires I can replace hers with because I know these Michelins are crap and I dont want to buy them again.

I don't want anything performance rated because the car is used strictly as a daily driver??

What can you guys reccomend that will give me the most bang for the buck??

Thanks.

 

how much are you wanting to spend?

 

I dont want to spend too much.

 

I just bought some kumho's 711...215/45/17 for 70 bucks per. So 15's would be real cheap. Everyone says they like the 712's, and 711 are less sticky hence longer treadwear. got em from http://www.whalentire.com

 

Michelin MXM4's are just fine.

 

kumhos

 

go to The Tire Rack, enter size, select 'sort by' price, and then scroll down until the price is right.

195/60's are your best bet for cheapiousness.

Off the top of my head:
Yokohama Avid's
Kumho 711's or 712's
Goodyear Eagle HP's

just remeber you get what you pay for

 

actually he gets what he pays for... I'm not spending anything here.

 

oh i was just saying cheap 90% of the time is crap unless you got a good assed deal on some quality stuffs

 

this is true.

cash - who spent a hundred buck a tire on Parada Spec II's and thinks it was worth it.

 

my kumho 712 ecstas (225/45/16) were 95 a piece

 

exactly

 

Hrrrrmmm you do get what you pay for this I would agree. However Falken Azenis I think are a great deal and preform great.

 

but you'd need two to three sets to last as long as the PS2's or the Ecsta's.... and you die in the rain.

 

I would definitly suggest the Pirelli P400 Touring, they are 48$ a piece and the treadwear is high, but the grip is awesomely good for what they are, i have these tires and they will last forever, the traction in wet is pretty good for this cheap tires. and if you don't believe a word of what i'm saying, go to tirerack.com and see the reviews of this tire.
I have them in my car and they have handle the streets of Caracas, and there are a LOT of potholes, bumps and stuff and still look like new.
Try those.

 

may i suggest yokohama avs es100 a pretty good dry/wet performance tire for the money...i think they go for $68 a tire for 195/60/15

20-25K miles. 30K if she drives like a granny. that's way more tire that she needs on a daily driver. nice tire though.
