Just the other day, I noticed my driver-side tire has a bubble... Needless to say, I'll need to replace it but I wanted to hear opinions on whether I should replace just 2 or all 4...

Reason I'm asking is that my current tires have been discontinued (Yoko A520's). Also, they're one of those tires that are directional (don't know how big of a factor this is.. but..).

What would you recommend, and why? Brand-wise, I'm leaning toward Kumho 712's. If it helps, the Yoko's are 235/45-17 mounted on OZ Competitions. TIA!

 

if the 2 tires on the other axle is bad..then replace all 4. if they are new then just replace the axle set that has the tire w/ the bubble on it.

 

Thanks Dan. How've you been buddy? This is sort of a ghost from the past.... Nice to see a familiar face/name.

Yeah, most likely I'll just replace the front 2... guess I forgot the most important part... tread life.. lol.. They have been used for about 20K or so...

 

damn. my rear tires (nitto) have cancer on them as well. what if i ride them out for a couple of months???
