Well for a long time my alignment was off... have friend works at Just Tires and I got my tires rotated, balanced, and aligned for $20.

He says my two front stock tires (Which are in the back now) are dead because my alignment was bad... and I should get new ones before he quits.

I have two different sets of tires, a pair (Rear) were the stock Michelins and the two fronts are BFGoodrich Traction T/A H (80% left).

What tires should I get? I want something thats quiet/comfy, good dry/wet traction, and lasts long. My BFG's are good but they are kind of loud.

Oh BTW i have an 05. 205/55/r16

Falken Ziex ZE512 or ZE912... 912 is the new version so it's a little better but you can find the 512s cheaper and they are really almost the same thing.

another vote on 912's

they're grippy, good in rain, and whisper quiet

im partial the dunlop sp sport #### doesn't really make much difference they have so many fucking numbers I don't know whats what.
pirelli pzero nero M&S pinna are great too, and I will probably be getting those next as I hear they have some of the absolute best wet traction available and they're good in snow ice and slush also.
or the yokohama advan s.4
if it were me I'd either get the yokohama advan s.4 or the pirello pzero nero M&S

Fuzion HRi's aren't too bad. They're pretty cheap, quiet, they seem to be holding up well on my wife's car. They're not real high-performance or anything but they're decent.

yeah, Fuzion ZRI's are good and I'm also partial to the kumho ecsta 711... Although for my favorite tires refer to my first post.
