Question tirerack.com

4.4 2001 sport

front 255/50 R19 103V
rear 285/45 R19 107V

that's what i need. i found like

toyos $174 front /$196 rear (toyos are not from tirerack. just here for pricing purposes)
pirellis for $175/$218
yoko advan 197/215
michelin 227/243

are these legit prices? i'm obviously going for more budget, but of quality. are these good/fair/bad prices? if fair/bad, what other shops are out there?

I recently purchased the yoko advan and those prices look legit to me. The general opinion is either the Toyo's or Yoko's as replacements.

i just ordered a set of Toyo's and am waiting for
their arrival. a couple people here have them and
have had great things to say about them. yes, the
price u were quoted for the Toyo's is good.

Of course you do, that's why you got an X5! I don't mind driving, I just hate circling for parking spaces

If your X5 will see any bit of snow (e.g. going to Tahoe, etc.), then your only choices are Pirelli Scorpion Asimmetrico Zero or the Toyos.

I have the Pirelli's and it sticks well in the dry, does well in the rain, and will keep you out of trouble for light snow use.
