I'm gonna be needing tires in the not too distant future; What to get? Been reading reviews and now I'm even more confused!!!

Just when I find one I like, I'll see three reviews that all say it sux? FWIW, I'm a daily driver type.

thx, b

I am also a 2010 SE owner curious to see the answers. This is actually a BIG wide open and loaded question.

I am in the market for tires this week! It's been 20k miles and the tires are about to blow! Looking for a good brand of 215/55R/17.

Thanks

I put a set of Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S V on my 09 LE V6. I think they would be perfect for a SE. They're a High Performance All Season tire. I've put over 10k on them now and they are wearing perfectly. They really make my car handle/ride ALOT better than the crap OEM Bridgestones and they really grab the road, especially in rain. I came close to buying a set of Michelin Primacy MXV4's but I wanted something that was more sporty and would give better handling. The Primacy's are a luxury tire, alot of people put them on LE's and XLE's for supreme ride comfort but they handle well also. Just not to the degree the Exalto's do. The warranty is the only negative thing I have to say about them at only 45k versus a 60k for the Primacy's. I have rotated and balanced mine twice now and like I said they are wearing just fine. Go to tirerack.com and read the reviews. I can't recommend them enough.

I used Michelin Primacy MXV4 h/v. I got 60,000 Miles from that set.

Now I have BridgeStone Turanza Serenity h/v. 70,000 miles warranty. I think I will get 70,000 miles. I paid $524 total from costco. Of course it came with free tire rotation.. But I rotate myself every 5k miles.

So I will make the final point.
1st. Michelin Primacy MXV 4. Very quiet and give you excellent mileage.
2nd. Bridgestone Turanza serenity. will last 70,000 miles. mileage is not as good as michelin.

good luck.
