Hi All,

First timer here. My front driver-side tire finally blew out on me today. I still had the stock Goodyear tires on there and just pushed over 60k km, so I suppose it's about time to get some new ones.

Can anyone suggest a good retailer in Whitby? Also I see a lot of threads here with suggestions for winter tires, but not a lot about replacements.

I was thinking Federal, Hankook or even those long lasting Coopers, but I'm still open to suggestions.

Sny help you can send my way would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Thanks guys I'll try both of those.

I still need advice on tires though. I simply don't have the extra cash to get snow tires and I want to make sure I can pick up something that at least won't get me killed if I drive them in the snow.

Any suggestions on an all season that is passable in winter?

What size are you looking for? If you don't have the 205-50-17's, you should get the Michelin Harmony... it will last forever, and is fantastic in all weather conditions. Cooper CS4 is another great choice...
