Just got a new set of Yokohama V rated 225-55-16 tires for the wife's Cadillac Catera. Best tires I have ever purchased!!! So smoth and quiet. Made a HUGE difference in the ride. So quiet, smooth and nice handling too. I can't imagine a more dramatic difference before and after. It's like driving a different car.
I called around town and got quotes on Goodyear, BFGoodrich, Bridgestone, Cooper, etc. Some were Z rated some were H rated, I wanted a smooth quiet ride more than I wanted Z rated high performance tires and we don't do any racing or wild driving.
I told the guy I wanted a smooth, quiet ride and I'm glad I listened to the guy at Tire Kingdom and took his recommendation based on what I told him I wanted.
I could have gotten a Goodyear something or other from WallyWorld, but I really didn't want to deal with them for something so important. Sam's Club had a BFGoodrich performance tire but it was special order and I didn't like the guy's attitude over the phone-lucky break for me.
The Yokohamas cost me $500 on the rim and out the door. Being a bit conservative as I get older I opted for the road hazard, that added another $50, and they got me for a front end alignment for another $50. Not the cheapest deal probably, but I am so happy with the tires, I don't even care.
