time for new tires
 
so finally the stock continentals are worn out. keeping the same size 195/60-15 i think it is. what tires do you guys recommend? $100 a tire is the limit. im looking for an all season with a sweet tread design. dont need strictly winter tires but i like the tread on these

General Altimax Arctic

you could spend 100 a tire and they'll last a while or you could spend like 150 and have them last a little longer and give a better ride. I'm not saying to double your price just make a little sacrifice.

If you were happy with OEM... Stick with them... same size and TPC number (stamped on sidewall)

go to discount tire if there is one by you.You can get the same exact tires as some other other place for about 20 or 30 or maybe 50 dollars less depending what you go with.

Otherwise go to tires.com or their sister site discounttiredirect.com. They have great deals. My last couple sets of tires came from them (other cars).
