Tire Recommentdations for a 98 V70 V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Mike WS on  Tue Jan 4 07:20 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I am in need of at least two tires maybe four. I have Michelin XSE's on the front and MX4's on the back. They both have a T speed rating. The XSE's are rated 700 for tread wear the MX4's 500. Think the traction rating is A on both. I have not been happy with the tread wear on either set. They both have under 30K on them.

I've been looking at some BF Goodrich Traction TA's. They have a speed rating of H and a traction rating of AA - better than the Michelins. Not sure on the tred wear but they have a 60,000 mile warranty wich the michelins don't have.

This is a familly car that is not drivven hard. Most of the diring is around town with an occassional 1-2 hundred mile trip on the weekend.

Does anybody have any experience with the BFG Traction TA's or have any
recommendations?

Thanks,

Mike in W-S, NC
