    Suggestion for tires

    Regardless of the age of the list, the UTQG ratings still applies to today's tires. The OP should look at the UTQG ratings of each tire he is considering. He should be looking at 600+ treadwear A or AA in traction and A in temperature. H and V speed ratings are the most common for the 2011 Camry...

    Suggestion for tires

    Are you basically worried about how summer heat affects tires? Maybe you should do a deep dive into tire grading. Your selection should be based somewhat on the grading of the tires. https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/2015uniformtirequalitygrading.pdf

    Tire Recommendation for 2001 Sport Trac

    Not my darling. The Goodyear Wrangler Steadfast HT is a better highway tire for trucks than the Michelin. My F-150 came with the Michelin and I replaced them with the Goodyear. I like the wet weather performance much better with the Goodyear.

    Potato chips review - what's the nastiest you have tried

    I don't understand why people buy Doritos and other brands of tortilla chips. Making your own is super easy, cheap, and has a lot less unnecessary additives.

    Post your latest oil or filter purchase

    I won't use Motorcraft or any other Purolator filter on my Kohler engine. My three choices are NAPA Gold 1348, Microgard Select MSL51348, or Carquest Premium 85348.

    Awaiting new Hyundai Theta II Engine Install

    The manual states 3,750 for severe service and 7,500 for normal service. 5,000 puts you right in the middle.

    Awaiting new Hyundai Theta II Engine Install

    Those pesky knock sensors. 😉 When a Hyundai/KIA Theta II detects knock, it's usually too late. Change oil every 5,000 miles. Use the thickest 5W30 that you can find. A 5W40 is also good. Our Optima oil always smelled of gasoline. NEVER use the Eco Mode.

    What caused problems on a 351w?

    Did the guy check the oil before he started it? Go get your engine and take it elsewhere.

    Tire techs: What’s the best balancing AT tire?

    You can take the ex employees statements with a grain of salt. Toyo Tire in Georgia is non-union and the union wants in there really bad.

    Tire techs: What’s the best balancing AT tire?

    I'm in SW Georgia and see a lot of Nitto tires on trucks. Did you know that Nitto is owned by Toyo? Besides, he sells many different brands of tires. This is his tire shop. https://stwdirect.com/#!tires/search?bp=tire&location_id=32379&search_by=vehicle&size_type=oe

    Tire techs: What’s the best balancing AT tire?

    Go to The Official Mike Melton on Instagram. He's probably the highest volume tire dealer in North Carolina. He does lots of tire reviews. His top two AT tire picks are the Toyo AT3 and Nitto Ridge Grappler G3.
