Just wanted to update. I got a set of these for my 99 accord several months ago. They seemed to be a good tire, especially for the price. I needed a set for my newly acquired 03 Camry (grandma stopped driving, grateful she thought of me when it came time to get rid of the car). Went with the same type of tire. Nothing to really complain about so far on either set. Have to see how they last, but they’re pretty quiet and have done well in fairly heavy rain.

I guess "quiet" is subjective. Most reviews say they are anything but quiet.
Glad they are working for you.
 
Gorgeous old Accord.
I had a '99 LX 4dr 5spd we bought new. Great car, fun to drive.
What is a DX doing with EX wheels on it?
That old Camry looks cherry.
Good to hear that these Walmart value priced tires are working well for you, since tires have gotten ridiculously expensive, like everything else I guess.
 
We have a set of those on the 2009 Accord from local Walmart. They have worked out very well. I kind of gravitated to Goodyear tires maybe 5-6 years back due to the fact it seemed both Accords (FWDs) were eating tires up. Not the car's fault as I am OCD about having all vehicles tires balanced and rotated often. Once I started the Goodyears it seems to have slowed the fast wear down some. They are not "magic" or cheap but we also like the ride and feel. Have a set of Goodyear Assurance All Weather on wife's Honda from a Goodyear shop since Walmart did not have those when I needed a new set. Most of our new Accords thru the years came from factory with Michelin tires that we found had lots of noise and gave too hard of a ride so I stopped buying them.
 
I did not have good results with Goodyears from Walmart years ago, an exclusive to Walmart Wrangler and passenger Viva II’s IIRC been a while but they were not good. Actually had better service out of Goodyear made Douglas brand which makes no sense to me.

Currently both our rides are wearing Goodyear's but not from Walmart. Wife’s Edge has Assurance WeatherReadys which have been fantastic. OEM Eagles on the Mustang I liked for about 14 months but now despise, they have worn quickly and have become obnoxiously noisy. Those will be replaced with Continentals this fall if I can stand it that long.

Those are really nice rims. I don't recall seeing that type on any Honda cars or SUVs. Maybe special order thru tire/rim company that can get any type OEM and after market ones?
 
I have a 21 honda hrv with 225/50/18. It came with cont pro contact tx and have 60000 on them with around 4/32nds left. I saw a set of the goodyear reliant in that size ar a local Walmart. They are 115.00 each...I talked to the salesperson in tires and they said that they sell a lot of them with no real issues with the reliant tires. I asked if they would exchange the tires if I was not happy with them with another of my choice and they said they do. I might take a chance and see if they are any good...The coni tires I have now have been good and only have a 40000 mile tread wear on them and I am at 60000 now with a few 32nds left so I am easy on tires...Might just give the Goodyears a shot...

I picked up a set of alloys. I believe they’re from an EX coupe. Also has a factory leather steering wheel I got from the wrecking yard. I really enjoy the car!
