Need new tires on my '04 Sonata
Any recommendations on tires for an '04 Sonata. I only got about
23,000 miles out of the stock Michelins.There are just so many choices (and price ranges) it makes it hard to know what is good and what is bad |
Re: Need new tires on my '04 Sonata
You didnt get too many miles from those Michelins. I go to Pep Boys
Auto center for my tires ; look for a softer tire and it will soak up some of the rear suspension sound that Sonata's are known for. I had a 2001 Sonata..and the noise was reverberating ; maybe they got it cleared up on your year. |

I replacedthe OEM tires on my 03 Sonata at 18K (and they pretty much sucked in the rain for the last 6K miles). I replaced them with Yokohama Avid H4s (not H4) tires. These tires are incredible and, if you get them from TireRack, VERY inexpensive. |

Thanks, I will look into the Yokohama's. Not sure why the Michelins
sucked so bad On Sat, 26 Feb 2005 15:20:12 -0500, Jason <none.of.your.business@see.left.of.at.com> wrote: >On Fri, 25 Feb 2005 16:03:24 -0500, me <me@here.com> wrote: > >>Any recommendations on tires for an '04 Sonata.

The tires i just put on my SantaFe were Peps Boys 'Futura' tires..made
by Cooper. Soft ride, nice handling, have used them alot on my other cars. Reasonable and long lasting. |

My choice would be one of these. BF Goodrich traction T/A T, Goodyear Assurance Triple Tread or Comfort Tread. All have very high ratings at Tire Rack. |
Re: Need new tires on my '04 Sonata
Decided to try the Yokohamas. I checked on Tirerack.com for the H4s
and the price seems good. About $64 a tire. Called a local tire place and was able to get all 4 for about $380 total (should be in end of the week) I didn't see any just H4 at tirerack, so I'm hoping the local dealer didn't order me the H4 rather then the H4s. What is the difference? On Sun, 27 Feb 2005 20:44:42 -0500, me <me@here.com> wrote: >Thanks, I will look into the Yokohama's.

Re: Need new tires on my '04 Sonata
good choice, yokies are great tires...
exspecially the avid h4. i remebr we had a used sonata loaner once with them, they were half worn and felt very stable in the snow n sluush. i was recommenting the nokians cause theyre the only 4 season tire thats severe snow usesages rated... but those yokies are pretty good too... im thinking of taking our winters of soon. in summer i have kumho/uylsses from walmart on our accent. 19.99 each heh heh =) "Jason" <none.of.your.business@see.left.of.at.com> wrote in message news:lqlj21d0io0268fvie892olac10i7l878o@4ax.com... > On Mon, 28 Feb 2005 18:29:21 -0500, me <me@here.com> wrote: > >>Decided to try the Yokohamas.

They are very low-priced and have a good ride, good wet handling and decent snow service. Check out the ratings and reviews on Tire Rack. Not super-sporty, but overall, a very good value as far as I’m concerned.
