I''m in need of a new set of tires for my ''03 EX V6 sedan. I''m not as concerned about all-out performance as I am about wear, comfort and all-season capability. Does anyone have a good tire to recommend?

Thanks!

Yokohamas are awesome.  You won''t be disappointed with them.  I had the dB S2''s which got discontinued due to a design flaw, but they handled beautifully.  hey were Ultra High Performance All Seasons on tirerack.com.  For you, I''d look into their High Performance All Season Tire.  The lower the performance rating, the better they are in snow, for the most part.

Michelen MXV4 premier energy (aka stock tires for the 03)....they last hella long, good ride quality and comfort. drove 95k on them before they finally wore down.

I replaced the HORRIBLE Michelin OEM tires with Yokohama Avid V4S @ 30,000 miles. I simply could not deal with them any longer. The Yoks are 70% quieter than the Mich''''s, the ride is SUBSTANTIALLY improved, they corner better, don''''t squeal, wet weather traction is better than the Michs ever thought about, and the wheel returns to center better from a turn. Wear is an unknown since I only have about 1200 miles on them. You could also look into the same tire in an H speed rating, they are a bit less expensive than the V but neither one is cheap. Can you tell I''''m pleased?
