    Why are OEM tires so bad?

    The CONTINENTAL Pro Contact TX that were with the '18 HYUNDAI Accent may be the best of 30+ years of buying new cars . Worst tires were for BRIDGESTONE Potenza RE92 ( '08 Toyota Yaris sedan ) followed by the DUNLOP SP31 A/S ( '11 + '13 HONDA Fit base ).

    General RT43 replacement?

    Just had the RT43s' (H) installed in place of the studded snows . This may be the last year for them . The ACCENT also has the H rated which remain on all year . Will miss them when both need to be replaced . The 45s' don't impress me . Not as many deep sipes .
