Currently looking for new tires...money has been tight since i've acquired some real life bills (lol) so im looking for something thats reasonable in price and still a good all season performance tire.

Driving a 2010 G37xS so its a 225/50r/18

Michelin? Bridgestone?

thoughts on a decent tire UNDER 190$ a piece?

thanks in advance !!

There was a recent thread around here asking for tire opinions. A lot of people pointed out the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, I think the newest version (3). Tire Rack currently has the V rated for 155 each and W rated for 177 each.

I was never a fan of Michelins, but Id be interested in those tires especially at that price. I paid 143 or so for Conti Extreme DWS in a much smaller size for my old i30.

Never thought Id say it but comparef to those, that Michelin might be a better value.

Bridgestone Potenza RE970 AS Pole Position. I paid $158 each for 225/50-18. No experience yet with snow but the reviews are good for an all-season tire.

gee wiz

Agreed, great tire for the money!

I also agree i have had mine for a few months, just had to replace one because of a screw but other then that, i like them alot. I would only suggest to do the road hazard plan, i didnt when i purchased 8 tires and i highly regret it because i have had to replace 3 already. 2 because my tires got slashed...

I just sold my Maxima wearing Nexen N5000 A/S tires with - believe it or not - over 70K miles on them with tread left. By far, they were the best performing cheap tires I've ever owned.

I've also had great luck with General tires.

FYI, Nitto is owned by Toyo. Nitto's are made in the USA!!! Motivos have a 60K warranty. I just got 245/50/17 for $125 from Discount Tire, that included $100 rebate- hard to beat that kind of price. I now have these on two cars- outstanding ride and performance.
