Hello guys. My brother needs new tires for his car. He's kind of tight on money these days. He just dropped over $500 at the Vet last week. Who said animals were cheap?
Being the great brother I am (I'm the youngest of 3). I decided to buy him a set and have them shipped to his door. I'm not rolling in dough myself. I do have some extra duckets in my savings. So I was looking to spend less then $400 shipped.
He does his fare share of highway driving. He drives 70 miles, all highway to and from work. He lives in Sonoma County, so little rain during the year.
I was looking for something with a treadwear rating over 400. I need it to be H rated also. I don't want to go down to T rated tires.
My three choices are
Kumho KH16 $68
Kumho LX Platium $91
General Altimax HP $85
I can get the KH16's shipped to his door for $316. You can't beat $68.00 each. My pocket book likes the KH16's. All three get good reviews. The Platium's have a treadwear of 600, and have 11/32nd tread depth. The other two have 440 and 10/32nds.
It looks like Tirerack is the cheapest online. Some places want $100 for shipping. It's nice for Tireack to have a Reno warehouse.
Thanks
