Which tire???

Smokin 5.0 · 06-02-08, 02:29 PM

Hi guys. As always, I come to my favorite place where I know I can find a bunch of gear heads just like myself! I attempted to do some research on a set of new tires for my car, but I'm finding quite a mixed review. I own an 06' G6 GTP (I know-Pontiac), and she has about 41,000 on her. The present tires are Good Year Eagle 2's P22S/50R18, not a horrible tire, but I haven't gotten the mileage I hoped for out of em. I need something aggressive- yet weather ready for our Wisconsin winters. I was told with that size tire, to be careful for too soft a tire for they tend to leak. Any help is so greatfully appreciated!!! Price is also a concern- so anything that's not going to run this full time student/ single mom into the ground is a great plus as well! Thanks!!!

There is a good website with reviews of tires, Tire Rack - Your performance experts for tires and wheels. I am assuming you meant 225-50-18. There are 10 different tires on there to compare.

Michelins are very durable. You usally can expect 50,000 miles from them if you're not a drifter.
