I apparently have some tire spotting on my front tires. It is driving me nuts with the "wah wah wah" noise it makes at low and high speeds. I have had the tire shop check it out (to check my alignment) and he said it is fine for now but is gonna need to be replaced sooner than normal wear. I have the eibach pro kit on the car and have since even before this set of tires. I guess my alignment just wasnt right after i put my stockers back on (had 20" wheels on it)

Anyway my fronts are the stock Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 225/40/18s. What are the most popular replacement tires for the stockers these days? I live in TN, so dont get snow (or rain for that matter) that often, but still want something for rear round (my daily driver).

If it matters, my rears are Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 255/40/18s. thanks!

and yes i have used the search button, but they were almost a year old the ones i found. i wanted some current opinions.

I replaced my stock tires @ 20k with Goodyear F1 All Seasons, which now have about 30k miles on them and are as quiet as the day they were installed.

do i need to have a similar speed rating for the new tires to match the stock rears?

General Exclaim UHP. Replaced mine in Nov and LOVE these tires (especially for the price). Do a search for these. I created a post explaining why I chose these.

I went with some Nitto Invo replacements, could't be happier with the performance, dry & wet, they are solid & comfortable not to mention they inspire confidence with spirited driving.

wow yeah these are priced really cheap! ill have to look into these . . .

i had heard good things about the invo's as well.

Anybody know or have any experience with treadwear on the Invo's?

if u live in TN, then the weather must be pretty nice all year round.

try getting a set of Michelin PS2s.

if u want similar performance for less, check out the Goodyear F1 asymmetricals.

I have them but they get a bit noisy when tread wears out.

they're on sale too


My next set will be michelin's tho.

I really need to give those a try.
