My old Diplomat had FR78-15s, which converted to a 205/75, so a G would be 215. H would be 225.

I no longer have the car, but I'm 99% sure my '21 Kia Rio had a bias-ply spare, and the one shown as a replacement for the '23 is also a bias.

You wouldn't be hurting yourself with the Douglases. I put a set on Dad's Dodge after he retired and they've worn every bit as well as the OEM-spec Kumhos that came off of it. He drives the car 1-2x a week.

Quick list. Dodge Journey, just because of the sheer utility. I love the storage cubbies and ability to transform it from a hauler to a 7-seater in seconds. Plus, it's the best-riding car I've had since my Cadillac Brougham. Say what you want, but my parents have had almost trouble-free service...

I bought a set of 185/65-15s right before Thanksgiving and now have about 5500 miles on them. Very satisfied so far. They have better grip than the Continentals my Rio came with, and are not noticeably noisier. There was a little bit of a hum on wet pavement during the first few hundred miles...

'21 Kia Rio hatch - 38,174 mi. Out: Whatever the Kia dealer put in - supposedly Mobil and a Kia filter In: Pennzoil blend 0W20 and Mann CF1520 filter

$7.99 for the 5-qt. I'm gonna grab more this week at that price.

'13 Hyundai Accent, 103,534 miles Out: 5W30 Harvest King In: 5W30 Traveller Prime Guard POF4612 filter (old and new) I normally get my oil at Rural King, but TSC had such a good deal going on Traveller that I couldn't pass it up.

I bought Douglas All-Seasons for my wife's and daughter's cars (wife drives our '13 Hyundai Accent, daughter has '07 Ford Focus). Having had great luck from the old Xtra-Trac and Xtra-Trac IIs, I figured these would be good. WRONG. The ones on the Accent are ridiculously noisy (not that the car...

I don't know if Farm & Fleet sells the Prime Guard filters, but you won't be skimping if you use those. I'm completely satisfied with them in my Nissan, Hyundai and Chevy. No issues whatsoever.

Got 'em all done - my '15 Versa (74K mi) and '96 Chevy 1500 pickup (175K), and my wife's '13 Accent (96K). All of them are using Harvest King synthetic blend 5w30 with Prime Guard filters - POF4612 for both cars, POF 4011 for the truck.

I use a 5-gallon bucket with a swivel seat I got at the gun shop. That's as low as I need to get most of the time. If I need to be lower, I have a smaller bucket with the same diameter that I can use. I didn't think I'd use it much, but it's been really handy.

2017 Cub Cadet XT2 LX42 22hp Kohler V-twin Out: Harvest King 10W-30 In: Harvest King 10W-30 Filter: Kohler Rural King's oil is what I use in my vehicles, so why not my equipment, too?

Mine is bad enough that I normally don't talk on it unless I use the speaker or Bluetooth in the car. I always thought it was just my hearing (which isn't good).
