Hey everyone i just ordered 4 Michelin Hydroedge 205 55 16 for my car gettin them mounted and balanced and everything for $580 tomorow. i know i'm kinda getting screwed but ooh well does anyone have experience with these tires?
I'm posting in here trying to get some feedback cuz no ones in the tires and wheels forum so sorry

 

I was looking at those too. But if you see the speed rating is T i think , i believe Nissan spec recommend H rated tires.

I heard that the ride is a little noisy, but the treadwear is AWESOME. 80,000 miles right?

good luck with your tires.

 

yeah i realized after i ordered them from a local shop that they were T rated but thats not a big deal i think there 119 mph or something oh well. does that look like a good price for 4 mounted and balanced and put on? can't wait to pick my car up today after school.

 

hey my shop aired them up to 44psi. is that correct for these tires cuz it seems like a ton compared to other tires

 

I believe 44 is the maximum pressure that the tires should be inflated to. I have mine currently at 32 psi.
The arctic alpin's on my car have been sorely dissapointing...especially in snow. Not sure about the hydroedge.

 

Nope, that's way too high
Check out this guide for more information:

well my tire guy said he put them at 44 and if the ride was too rough to lower them to 40 but i like the way it rides so i don't know if i should lower them or not and they look good the way they are. not overinflated looking. will they wear bad if i leave them at 44 or is it dangerous or something?

 

I can't believe how many idiots work in tire shops and quickie lubes. Get out your owner's manual. Mine says look at the placard under the console lid between the seats. Check there to see what the tire pressure is. Mine says 32.

the number on the sidewall on the tire is max pressure, not the recommended pressure, which can only be established by the car manufacturer, not the tire manufacturer. the tire, as it is being created, has no idea what car it's going on.
