Hello,

I currently have Goodyear Eagle RS-A (P245/45 R18 96v) on my 05 Maxima now. I just had my car inspected for this year and was told my 2 back tires need to be replaced. Does anyone have any ideas for me... These 18" tires seems very expensive..

The tires I have now are rated V...Can any other Rate be used in front with V in rear ?

I would avoid mixing tires if possible.

I recently did and really regreted it. I was poor and couldn't afford nice tires (Bridgestone potenza RE050A), so I put on some junk used tires (most nice used tires are fine) and when I hit my brakes to avoid a collision, I crossed 4 FWY lanes and slammed the rear of my I30 into the guard rail.

I have a set of 18s for sale in the classifieds if you're interested. They're almost brand new, but a different size than you're running now (225/50/18)
