joey b Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 I would like some suggestions on tires. I don't want to spend more than 100 a piece. Also, some opinions on the raised white lettering. What kind do you suggest for traction (I live in MI=rain, snow, cold, hot). What do different tire ratings mean and where do I find them. 225,60,16 is the size I need.

sonyman87 Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 my vote is on Bridgestone potenza 009 they are H rated and grip awesome! even in rain its hard to break them loose tirerack has them priced at $72 each for 225 60r 16 not including shipping i think they also come with a 55,000 mile warrenty i have a set on my front brand new and they kick ass.

jeremy Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 the only bridgestones I would buy are the Pole Position's and I don't know if they make the size that you are looking for in that tire... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93CutlassSupreme Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 i wouldn't recommend michilens or coopers....michelins suck in snow, and coopers tend to blow out and develop sidwall buldges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92gransport Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 I'm going to need to get tires in the fall, same size for my Regal GS. I really don't need a high speed rated tire and I've decided that I am going with the BF Goodrich Traction T/A in the "T" speed rating (also available in H & V rated). It's a directional tread design which is supposed to be quite versatile and good in snow with a 70,000 mile tread warranty and they're inexpensive. The tirerack.com has them for $65 + shipping and then you pay to have them mounted & balanced. I was looking at the special order catalog at Wal-Mart and they have them for something like $69.83 and then you just pay $9.76 per tire for the mounting, balancing, valve stem, road hazard, lifetime balance & rotation.

EurosportZ34 Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 My thoughts exactly. Ever since I got my Traction T/A's I've thought they were the shit. They grip really well, especially in the snow and rain. If I remember right they were only like $80 or so per tire for the V-rated ones.
