What is everybody with 18's running for tires. I sold the factory michelins due to poor rain and snow performance. I have my winters on now but I am looking for something that is good for summer and winter since my winters are almost gone.

Any suggestions?

 

At 36,000 miles I replaced my OEM Michelin's (poor wear and a Wisconsin winter approaching) with Continental's CrossContact LX20 tires. That was 26,000 miles and two winters ago. These tires have performed much better in winter, wet and dry conditions. Tread wear is much better than the crappy Michelin's, and ride is just fine. I would buy these tires again, hands down.

 

something that is good for both is hard to find. somekind of all terrain tire would be the best bet.

 

We had Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max and we put over 40k miles on them and they still looked new, handled well in all seasons and were quiet until the day we traded our '11 D in. Too We rotated every 5k.

Only negative if you could call it that, is that it liked to get little rocks stuck in the tread(on the outer edge) and if they were white it drove me nuts after I would detail her because it would take much too long to try and pry them out.


Right now on our 15 we have Kumos and I think they are eh so far but we only have 1k on them.

Natch that about the Kumhos, we now have 3k on them. I was thinking about the 2k mile trip we just took to Hilton Head, SC. They are much louder than the Goodyears we had on our '11. I will say though, we got 27mpg round trip!

18' tires are 18 feet. Fender clearance might be a concern....

 

i live in south fl and just replaced my michelins because they were completely bald. I went with Hankooks. We dont get much snow around here though

 

Bought a set of General Grabber HTS 265/60-18's on friday. I can't believe how quiet my Durango is again. I'm going to have a hard time buying another set of coopers.
