All Season Tires?? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

TOcorolla · 09-24-2005, 08:06 PM

Do any of you (Corolla 2004) run on Kumho Touring A/S tires? I think it's time to change my integrity oem tires...cause they are really wearing out...
do you guys recommend any other all season tires at a reasonable price?

Lol...Good Year Integrity tires...Mine lasted 24k, A good tip, any 05-06 corolla potential buyers make sure they don't stick you with Integrity's...I'm sure you will get some good responses here, we had a few threads on best tires...I use BFG traction t/a H rated here in the US and it works fine for the wet/dry/ice conditions and the few heavy snows we get but Canada has rougher winter driving conditions and the need for a better all weather tire or winter tire ....Good Luck...Radd...Guy....

I know...i'm ashamed ! haha..i've rode on them for now...60 000km

need new tires for the winter...so lookin for some all season tires...at reasonable price...

u said make sure they dont stick u with integrity tires?? but do u have a choice??

My 03 Sport Corolla has about enough tread to get new tires at 62000!!!

Where you buy 'em may just be as important..not sure whether to go to a chain ie. crappy tire/costco or a specialist that knows what they are doin, after all, the tires have to keep you on the road safe and sound.

There is a shop on 14th ave. in Toronto just east of leslie that specializes in tires/installation, just can't remember name...

I'll post once I get em replaced.

I think if you tell them that you really don't want these tires or you won't buy the car they will put on some others,

that's what I did but the sad thing was the original tires were Fire stones and that's when they were having problems with the Firestone truck tires and I told them I wanted different tires and they gave me Goodyear Integrity's...Stupid me

Just how bad they are I think Tire Rack has them listed at 19% customer would by them again

...Radd..Guy....

All season tires suck in every condition. They're not good during summer, and they suck during winter. Better option is to have separate tires for summer and winter. I have studded tires for winter use, no problems with traction.

I have used these tires on several cars and have never had a problem http://www.canadiantire.ca/assortmen...=1127640458748 . There on sale right now.
The good thing about crappytire, is the ability to get real nation wide service. If you buy from a mom and pop and have trouble out of town, you're screwed.

I'm still hanging onto my opinion.

go to Wheels Direct on Sheppard in Scarbs, they usually have wicked deals there. I got a pair of Kumho 711s put on and everything for $155

Joe B · 09-25-2005, 03:42 PM

I just has a set of these installed on the '05.

A directional tire with nice grip on dry and wet roads.
Curious to see how they do in snow.
Tire Rack Survey says they do well.

$87 and a $50 free gas card.

I wouldnt recommend khumos after my experiences with them. I'd consider the bridgstone turanza ls-t tire it looks like a good one. if you can find them anywhere I'd consider the goodrich t/a traction also.

TOcorolla · 10-08-2005, 01:50 AM

I came across some Toyo tires....Do any of you hav ethem installed on ur corollas? and how good are they?

***REN69*** · 10-08-2005, 11:13 AM

Everyone praises their performance tires.. not sure how their lower lines are, but I doubt they would be bad.

BTW, I ran H-rated all-season tires for winter for 2yrs and it wasn't bad at all, but I noticed the difference when I put winters last year. So whatever you buy, buy H-rated maximum.

I second that I have BF Goodrich Traction TA here in Denver, very good in snow for an all season tire, Kuhmo is a peice of shit! I bought them keep them aligned and rotated and when they failed at 20k, Kuhmo said so sad no warranty! Crappy company, although I will say some of their other tires seem to do well and they are cheap according to tirerack.com.

Also ask Flashman what he thinks, but Nokian, Finish I believe, are supposed to be the best for dedicated snow and also have an all season tire that is truely snow rated, a bit expensive though. Blizzak also makes a very good dedicatd snow tire, but they don't last long.
