pliu Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Hi, Recently, I've been searching for good tires, haven't had luck finding a good tires for my Avalon. I was looking at Bridgestone Turanza LS-H at Costco, but Costco stopped carrying them this year. The Michelin Pilot XGT H4 or Energy MXV Plus are my other options but not sure which one to get. Any word from other Avalon owner would be much appreciated. thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leighcm Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 What are you trying to accomplish with your tires....handling, quiet, bad weather performance, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pliu Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 I'm not really looking for performance. I want a long lasting, quite touring tire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevelaw Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Energy MXV are good tires...but have you looked anything from BF Goodrich? I just put Momentums on recently. They handle very well, especially in the rain, and have a great treadwear rating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irobot10 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I got 4 Yokohama Avid h4s for my Avalon. They are cheap ($62/tire) compared to the stock Michelins, yet "much" better tires. Excellent road grip on turns, great braking and great traction on both dry & wet surfaces. Yet to experience snow on these tires, but I'm sure they will do just fine. Noise was a problem initially but that disappeared after braking-in perios of about 500 miles. I can enjoy my super-quiet & smooth Avalon now.

Don M Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I've had two sets of the Michelin Pilot XGT H4 on my 1997 Avalon & have been very pleased with their performance. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
