Which tires

Hi:

Looking to replace my 1999 GLE tires - 45K miles - got a gash in 1 of the wheels. I am in NJ so All Season Radials should be ideal.

Which makes/models do you advise and why?

Regards,

go to www.tirerack.com check out survey's and test on the tires in the range you are looking for. I used tire rack to determine the set of summer tires i bought, i must say that i am extremely happy with my choice and purchase.

I think that the falken all seasons are a good bang for the buck. I had the old 502's on my old max 215/60/15 i got all four from vulcantire.com for 240 shipped! Given there no pole position 3's

Dunlop Sport A2's

Very smooth, Very Quiet, Excellent traction both wet and dry. They'd be great tires for a GLE. A lot of guy on here run them, including myself and will tell ya the same thing. Great tire!

Thanks njmax - the new DUNLOP tires are great. I got them from tirerack.com shipped for $282 and paid $55 to Tuffy's for install/balance/stems/disposal. So all in I spent $337. Compare that to SEARS all-in price of $480.
