Replacement tires for Platinum (18")
Hey folks - has anyone done a direct-replacement for tires on the 18" wheels?
I'm not especially happy with the Continental ProContact, and was looking at better tires.
Just want to see what experience people have... Bridgestone/Michelin/etc.
Not "in general", but actually "on the Maxima".

I do get a little road noise with my Contis, but these are the first tires I have ever driven that have always stayed in perfect balance and without the slightest hint of vibration at triple digit speeds. And that situation has been true for a year now.

The Contis are better, but are tuned for comfort, not sport.
There are some really good, high-mileage tires available for the Maxima at great prices ($149 or less). I paid $400/each for my BMW tires from Discount Tire... Yuk.
Best experience for summer tires = Michelin Primacy/Pilot Sport and Bridgestone Potenza RE70 (surprising compared to my absolute garbage Turanza EL42).
