Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE
I replaced mine with Hankook Ventus HRII's, which have performed quite well for the price (I got 18"s for about 110 each). Definitely more grip off the line than the OEM Michelin's and P6's (I've driven both).
I have the Revo 1s on my Subaru Outback, and feel that they are great winter tires. And I can assure you, we have real winter here in the Minnesnowta area!
The Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza have done everything perfectly for me so far. They have been a very good tire. Perhaps a B+ or a A-.
Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza's have worked well for me. This is my 3rd set...1st on the Touareg. Had the Pirelli Scorpion's -- Was not very impressed with those.
I have got the Bridgestone RE960A/S and they are just a good all around tire. I have put more than 30k miles on them and have only one complaint...some noise. That is it. They handle great in the dry, wet, and even snow here in Michigan. They also wear great.
The RE-01R's are on a massive sale right now, as the replacement will be coming soon.
Best bang for the buck, Hankook W300 for me.
Play with 'em and see how they feel. Anywhere 32 - 42 pounds is gonna be alright, but if you're sensitive, you'll find a pressure that yields the best combination of ride and handling ( and maybe wear), and lets the sidewall construction work as designed. I've found it to be 37/35 for stock contisports, the same or a pound more for my PS2's, 3 lbs less for my RE050A Bridgestones.
The Hancook's on my car are quite noisy on uneven surfaces.
I had a set of RE050A Pole Position, they wore out in about 10k miles. All highway miles!
