What tires? 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be tom on  Sun May 19 05:16 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Unsuccessfully searched for tire recommendations in the archives. I have a '93 245 that has Pirelli P600's on them from previous owner. They've been OK, but one of them slipped a belt a couple of years ago. Don't know if they were OEM. Have seen lots of 240's with Michelin MXV tire on them, but whenever I search on a tire company's or store website (e.g., NTB, Discount Tire, Sears, Tire Rack, Michelin), I always come up with no tires available for the '93 245! What gives here?

This is my wife's car. Mostly driving around town, some on the GS Parkway in NJ, some on 2 lane 60 mph roads. Looking for a good, quiet all-around tire that I can keep on all year long. I have installed IPD swaybars and Boge turbo gas shocks; both have made an amazing improvement in the handling. The winters by the shore are not too severe, so I don't really need to switch to snows in the winter.

I'm thinking of a Michelin all season tire. Your thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

Tom
