I was curious to see what brand/kind of tires most of the people on here recommended. I have a 95 LS400 with about 175K miles on it, and all 4 tires have pretty bad thread wear, so i really need to change my tires. Here's the list of tires i'm looking at:
Michelin Primacy MXV4 (98H)
Goodyear Assurance Tripletred
Goodyear Eagle GT
Out of the four, the first one is the most recommended, the MXV4, but they are pretty expensive too, at about 130/tire.
The second choice, the goodyear tripletred, i read quite a few reviews that said they suffered a loss in MPG's (about 1 to 2 mpg), and they were a lil bit noisy.
and with the goodyear eagle GT, i have read both good and bad reviews, and they're not all that expensive either, so i'm thinking about getting those. However, i would really like to hear what people on here say before i make that decision.
Are there any cheap brands out there that perform as good as these ones, or what ever. I just want to know what others have experienced with these or other brands.
Another question that i had was seafoaming. I don't think my car has been seafoamed before, since we bought at about 171k miles. But it has been maintained pretty good, or at least thats how it feels/handles. I'm afraid that if i seafoam the car, i might get some leaks due the mileage on the engine. If there is a leak, the carbon buildup must cover it and if i clean the carbon buildup, it might expose the leak... so what do you guys think?
I thought i saw a section for tires on this forum.. but i couldn't find it. SO if i did miss it, plz feel free to relocate it to that section.
thanks.
