Just wondering what the majority of folks with 18" wheels are getting for new tires when their OEM Dunlops have seen their last days...

On the tirerack it looks like there are really only 3 choices...

The Dunlop AT 23 - which have no survey results..
The Bridgestone Duelers - which survety results pretty much suck...
The Michelin Pilots - have good survey results but are a boat load of money!!!

Are folks just going back to the Dunlops?

Thanks,
Will

For good on-road ride and puncture resistance, check out Goodyear Fortera with Silent Armor. It does come in 18" size, but it is slightly wider & taller (285/60/18) than your current stock size.

Just upgraded to 18" (bought some OEM rimsto replace the original 16") and the OEM 16" were Micheline LTX. With the 18" I decided to go for the Kumho ECSTA. they are slightly wider at 285, but have excellent ratings and are almost 1/2 the price of the Michelin. The ratings and reviews are also excellent:

So far I am very happy with them and cannot tell a difference from the 16" (road noise, drive feel, etc. Will gladly pick them again, and they rate much higher than the Dunlops).
