Did you try searching the archives for answers? Click the 'search' button in the upper right hand corner.

 

Get 235-45-17.

As far as which one. Z rated or better. go to http://www.tirerack.com and use a search for that size, then do your research depending what conditions you drive in.

 

Thanks for the quick reply,
actually what i'm really looking here is the right price and if there any coupon or discount that i can get.

Thanks again

 

I usually get my tires from the Tirerack.

As for tires, there are several good choices:

All season:
Dunlop SP5000 - I have these and they are great. Z-rated too.


Summer:
Dunlop SP8000
Bridgestone RE730

 

i heard that Z rated is not a really good choice for snow (i live in Ohio)

but i think i'll go with Dunlop sp sport 5000 assymetrical, but it is W though, is it the same tires with the one you recommended (z rated)?

 

Read the tech section on tirerack, it contains all the info you need, speed rating etc. Z rating is the speed rating of the tires and no you do not need a z rated tire, your car will never reach that speed, unless it's being dropped off of a cliff, then it wouldn't need the tires cause... ah nevermind.
