I have a 2008 hyundai elantra that needs a new set of tires. I found a set of General Altimax RT43 T-rated tires for right at 300 dollars. Would i be ok putting these T-rated tires on my elantra that came with H-rated? I know that they make this same size RT43 tire in an H-rated, but I can't find them as cheap. I'd rather use the T-rated anyway because of possibly getting a longer tread life. Also most of the H-rated and higher tires I've had in the past have had more road noise.
I've had a few tire shops tell me I shouldn't put T-rated tires on this car because it originally came with H-rated. This doesn't make sense to me because Hyundai also made this identical car available with 195/65-15 T-rated tires from the factory.
Thanks in advance for any info!
