any suggestions?

What are u looking for, all-season/performance, max performance, is cost an issue?

I live in nice weather and i like a pretty smooth ride and I don't want to spend a fortune, but don't mind spending for a quality tire. Presently have a Japanese high performance brand that has a very bumpy ride, thanks.

Check here; http://www.tirerack.com/ Theres a ton of variables, and this is a great site. And if the bumpy ride bothers u, a softer tire will be better.

Im partial to Bridgestone, but they dont have what I want in my size, so I think Ill stay with Pirelli.

Like S60R, many would agree that it's a trial-and-error matter, and what-suits-you-may-not-suit-me manner. That's why you'll need to check on the kind of comfort/performance ride that you're after.

But fortunately, as far as performance of the tyres are concerned, we have the opinions and analysis of others as guides. :)

Good luck in your search.

thank you very much

I will not put anything but Michelin on my vehicles. I have the Hydroedge on my S 60 and on my daughters Camry. Don't skimp on tires, you'll regret it later. My buddy across the street put a less expensive tire Mastercraft on his '97 960 and he is sorry for doing it.

I would echo jks2's words. Afterall, those four rubbers are the only contact points for you to the ground. Better make sure they work!

Thank you everyone. After much research and taking to the people at Tire Rack
I am going with "Avon Tech M550 A/S 215/45/-17"

Happy we could help :)

Like the tires so far, smooth ride, takes turns well. feels good.

I have 205-50-17 Avon Tech M550's. The ride is better than th :beer: e 45's, and nothing rubs. Excellent tires, very resonable price, from Tire Rack.
