Hello, all,
Something on one of our lovely roads cut my RF tire last night, incidentally converting me to a strong belief in the TPMS, which warned me in time to get off the road. The cut is on the inner shoulder of the tire -- not repairable, as far as I know. I'm running on the compact spare for now. It's rated for up to 65mph for up to 3000 miles, so I'm not in a panic situation. But at 67K miles, I think it's about time to replace all 4 anyway.
My regular mechanic is collecting some prices on the General Altimax and 1 or 2 others you all have mentioned here. Quiet and smooth is what I'm looking for, followed by good traction, followed by price. If anybody has a new suggestion, please chime in!
