Could use some advice on tires for my 2005 mt6 coupe( 225/40/19 &245/40/19). I am an older man and dont drive very aggressively. I really dont want to put $1500 into a set that only lasts 15000 miles. Any suggestions? Thanks

Pls define OLDER. You may look into The Tire Rack for alternatives they also have user reports, comparison tests that can help you making an informed desision.

I just spent $860 on a set of 4 Toyos from Tire Deals 4 less. Nice tires, better traction than stock. Plus, I went with wider sizes.

Yes, but we're only talking about a 30mm increase (245 to 275). It's not like going to 315's....

they look awesome bro. you've got a good deal. Would you mind to take a pictures from the top view when you turn the wheel out and maybe from the back the whole car so we can see better how they look. I think that's what G wants to see also. As I said they look awesome fro the side.

thanks man
