Default Tire Question...............please help

OK heres the deal, Im looking for some 205/45/16 tires that are decent tires and that are non directional so I can rotate them from left to right every now and then.

I was looking at the Yokohama Avid h4's but I saw they are directional.....can any one help me out on this one???

thanks

They have Sumitomo HTR+ that are non-directional, they can be found at sears, although on there web page i only see them in 205 40 16 but i'm sure they can get 45 series. I think why they mention the 40's is because there on sale for 76.99 (i work there, it shows huh...)

looked on Sumitomo's website and the htr+ tires only come in 205/40/16

also checked out the Azenis and I could not find a 205/40/16 size in them either


any more ideas??

I realize you are looking for a 205/45 tire, but I thought I'd throw my opinion in. I drove a Protege 5 for a while with the following Dunlop SP Sport 5000 tires in 195/50/16. I thought they had very good grip and excellent ride quality. Very quiet. Also non-directional for your rotating request. Just thought I'd throw that out. I was very pleased!

The Azenis are 205/55/16. Is that to much tire?

well i dont know about the 5000's sports but the 9000 has awesome specs but not the greatest prices. I just picked up yokes AVS ES 100's in 205/45/16 and can't wait to my wheels. I ordered them from http://www.tires.com which has free shipping right now. And got them in 3 days! the specs on them are awesome as well as much longer lasting treadwear than azenis. BTW what r u using these for? Daily driving? no AUTOx? if so dont go azenis. good luck man.
