Rep Power: 307 Need tires for Daily driver, not performance
Suggestions please. They are going on a Accord sedan. My mom needs tires for her accord. I don't need anything performance wise, just something good and decent. OEM 's are Michelins, but they are kinds expensive. So people help me out, but suggest what you've heard to be good tires, for this daily driver.
thanks
thanks

Rep Power: 428 what you need my friend is a set of falken ze-512's.
I paid about $212 shipped for all 4 of mine. They are the **** tires.

Rep Power: 0 Yokohama AVID Touring - If you have Discount Tire near you see how much they want for them, they were super cheap when I picked some up for the gf's car. Very quiet, capable handling, excellent snow traction.

Rep Power: 0 The Falken Azenis ST-115 would be a really nice tire for her car. It's a luxury performance tire with good tread life rating. I like the Ziex 512, just not sure if they will be quiet enough for her.
I've also heard alot of praise about the Kumho ASX. The 711s get very loud though, so I would avoid those.

Rep Power: 0 If you live around hacienda heights or anaheim, I have a tire place that gives hella good deals on Falken and Nitto tires. That's the place I go to get Falken tires. 17 inch Azenis ST-115 for around $400 installed. The 512 for 17s was $360 or something because of the unpopular tire size 205/45/17. If your interested, PM me.

Rep Power: 0 Get a pair of BFGoodrich Traction T/As, they've got a really good Tirerack.com rating and they're pretty cheap. I just put a pair on my car for winter/all-season tires, the handling is nice and the road noise is greatly reduced from stock.

Rep Power: 0 Based on my own personal experience, I like the Bridgestone Potenza RE-950 & the Yokohama AVS db for all season tires. I love those tires for all season use.
