2019 Ivy Metallic (Green) Premier with 19" Hankook tires, stock. About 52k miles on them.

I figure it's time to start looking for replacements, and I'm interested in what others have put on, and what their experiences are.

I live in Florida, so no need for anything that will see snow. I also installed a subwoofer with the noise cancelling mics defeated, so I hear everything; Road Noise is a big deal and I'd like very quiet tires. Also, comfort is a big deal- for reference, I had a '97 Corvette (factory green color) with the Goodyear run-flats and I changed them to Hankooks for amazing comfort. Easily the best thing I ever did for that car.

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Can you provide the model of the Hankook tires? Also, I wondered if you’d considered going one-size wider?
Tks

 

[Hey Vern!]

My 'nox came with Kenda tires. Pure junk, no traction. When they wear out, I will replace them with Michelin. They are very quiet and offer great wear and quicker braking distance.

Did you consider going to a larger (wider) tire?

 

[Hey Vern!]

I did not. 235 is a 9 1/4 inch wide tire. cornering/ handling is not an issue, so no need in my opinion, unless you are going for a certain look.

Have a look at discount tire. They ask a few questions and recommend a few different options with info on each.

 

[Vondoman]

Tks for the info guys. Yes going for a slightly wider tire look.

Put some Continentals on my 2017, seemed to grip better than the Michelin Defenders I had on it.
The Michelin Primacy ? that came on it went fast...

I got mine off Tire Rack- shipped to Discount Tire, mounted and balanced for 95$.
I think TR and Discount Tire have some type of partnership

Did you go with the same size that came from the factory. I’d like to go a little wider but am hesitant

I went with the same size, It's tricky enough to just keep everything going on cars these days.
