My car is a very well maintained 1995 Ford Crown Victoria LX (Geezer Package), and, starting May 30th I'll be putting about 20,000 miles a year on it for the next four years, driving back and forth to law school. Basically, I'll be driving this cream puff on the highway from one side of Houston to the other.
My needs are:
1 - Must be good in wet conditions - Houston is flat and it tends to have heavy rains from time to time, but I'm not *necessarily* looking for a "rain" tire.
2 - Must have great ride comfort, low noise, and long tread life. I want peace & quiet in my car!
3 - I'd like it to be able to handle reasonably well, too. (I *DO* live in Houston after all!)
4 - Price is always a consideration, too.
I've been looking at the following tires:
Michelin Harmony (~$120 a tire)
Michelin HydroEdge (~$135 a tire)
Goodyear Eagle RSA (I get them for $67 a tire)
Yokohama AVID V4S (~$90 a tire)
Yokohama AVID Touring (~$75 a tire)
Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions? Please feel free to toss them my way! I am like a sponge for you BITOGers!
