Update 6 months later: I haven't gotten a chance to test them in snow despite getting them in January. It was a very mild winter. But I noticed immediately how much better they handled in the rain. Compared to those these made a real difference and I felt safer. I don't notice any more noise with these.
For SUV, I prefer Bridgestone Dueler, good quality tires for offroading and highway use.
I do some spirited driving here and there and in general appreciate grip at higher speeds, so the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 is my tyre of choice
They are budget friendly and reliable. I'm using for the past 5 years.....have driven at high speeds for long distances and hot climate.....felt very comfortable.
ebay has oem denso coil packs set of 4 for about $70
Just get a Denso. That’s what Toyota uses.
FWIW I bought a TYC 117842 for my Echo from Rock Auto and I was pretty happy with it
Have been using Motul 5w30 for many years now...
Last thing on my agenda is the spark plugs. Got it with 131K and I’m pretty sure the previous owner literally sold it to avoid doing them. I know I should have done them yesterday, but god it looks like a bitch, even with Car Care Nut’s guide. I’m planning on doing the job with the new plenum gaskets, and ignition coils while I’m back there.
I went with Cardone HD CV's, one tore a boot in the first year, so I replaced it with the same. Now the other one has a torn boot. I have about a 1 inch lift, so the CV's arent at an extreme angle. Just not sure why this keeps happening.
