Hey Right now I am wearing
225/40R19 93V Blizzack LM-25V Front
245/40 R19 94V Blizzack LM-25V Rear

I was wondering what you could do shipped to 19464 for replacements or other all - season recommendations?

Thanks!

They didnt last as long as I hoped so w/e you could recommendwould be great. It should definately be all - season though, its my only car and need it to be useable in bad weather The Blizzacks let me pass trucks in really bad road conditions and they were great in the snow! I almost never slipped (only when making stop and goes on 90 degree right angles hitting the gas a little too hard haha) -- may have been on purpose

When are you guys going to do a full test on the Hankook Ventus v12 evo K110's? I will be replacing my current tires next spring and these certainly have a great price.

Only a/s tire I can get sooner than 4-6 weeks is the Michelin Sport A/S+. Full set shipped would run $1,155.97. The a/s won't be as good in the snow as a dedicated snow, but it will last longer.

Full set Hankooks would be $795.22, the BFG $917.22. Call me if interested!

neal,
What would you recommend for an '05 35x and what could you do for pricing, i was looking at the continentals, generals and blizzacks. My last car used bridgestones and i enjoyed them, but im open to trying something new. We get alot of winter mix and heavy snow. zip 06096.

i forgot original is 215/55r17

I need to get some new tires for the winter/allseason. I have a 03 sedan with the sport package (17 inch rims). What would be the best solution.

Hi

I am looking to replace tires on stock rims on a 2004 G35 Sedan with sport suspension. I currently am running Yokohama AVID V4s but I find they are too stiff for my driving style and they wore out at 20K miles. I like to take corners pretty hard and I tend to lose traction quite a bit. I also need to have the wheel alignment done because my rear tires are bald in the center of the tire although the fronts wore pretty evenly. I figure a summer tire would be best for me with performance being the main focus. Treadwear is probably more important than noise, but not by much. I was thinking of the Continental DW but I've never had Continentals before.

Thanks

For a dedicated snow I'd look at the Blizzak. AWD and that tire you'll have no problems at all. I'd follow that up with the Conti winter, General third. Best I can do price wise is what we have listed online or direct with me via phone.

1) $260.57
2) $220.57
3) $252.57

Of the bunch the Conti is the best handling, the LX longest lasting/most comfortable. Not sure how well any will mix with the existing tires you have, however.

They do not make the LM-25's both front/rear in those sizes any longer. However, they do make the LM-60. Have an order number?

The Conti DWS would be an all around good choice on a sport all season level. Many with those that are happy. For touring based I'd look at the Michelin Primacy MXM4 if it's in your budget.

If you want good ride and tread life that's not going to come from a performance summer tire. I'd look at the touring all season class. Longer life and better ride are the two main focuses of that class. Choices are limited, but the B-Stone Serenity, Michelin Primacy MXM4, and Kumho LX are the top three I'd look at.

Hi Neal,
Sorry, you may have came across this question for the 100th time haha.
I just recently purchased a used 03 G35 Coupe AT, and now im in a desperate need for winter tires. I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and it gets pretty ugly here. What would you recommend to buy for overall performance during the winter?


Thanks,
Tim

Hey Neal I am trying to fit my new volk g2s with some bridgestone re-11s. My rim size is 19X9.5 in the front and 19X10.5 in the back. They are going on a 04 g35 coupe with a suspension drop of about 1 inch (tein h-tech springs). I think 245 in the front and 275 in the back? Do that make sense? If so can i have a price quote?

A 245/35 and 275/35 would work fine there. Lots to choose from in that combo. Anything in mind tire wise?

Four 225/35's shipped would run $718.09, four 30 series shipped $759.60. Prices include shipping and duties.

I just meant a pair of each. Sorry for the confusion. The price you're giving us, is it the exact same as it would be if I ordered them right from tirerack or is there some sort of rebate? Thanks Neal.
