#14710 of 14761 Re: Which best Tire for Avalon 06 limited [nidal] by fin Jun 26, 2009 (12:47 pm)
Replying to: nidal (Jun 26, 2009 12:10 pm) A one set limited experience with Dunlop was not good. Toyo is a great tire for performance but the ride is firmer than most and you get a little more road noise, we have used them on both an Avalon and v6 Accord. No experience with the other two brands. My '07 Limited actually has N filled Nexen tires on it, great ride and performance at half the price of Michelins, the tire guy recommended them. Also, my driving is in GA/FL, there is little snow or ice so if that type of weather is a factor it might affect your decision.   Others will probably reply about the Bridgestone and Yoko brands... Good luck. Replies to this message: branch15_5 (Jul 06, 2009 5:41 am) fin (Jul 07, 2009 11:35 am)

Replying to: nidal (Jun 26, 2009 12:10 pm) And I would have to disagree about the Dunlops. I live in NY, had 2 sets on my Camry (previous car) got good mileage 54,000, & good traction in bad weather.   Rotated then every 10,000 miles. Buy a AAA rated tire, my Avalon limited has Michelin, quiet, good in bad weather, only 13,000 on them so far, can't comment on mileage.

Replying to: fin (Jun 26, 2009 12:47 pm) fin, how many miles have you put on the Nexens? Any idea of how much mileage you'll get out of them?   Thanks in advance. Replies to this message: fin (Jul 07, 2009 11:35 am)

Replying to: branch15_5 (Jul 06, 2009 5:41 am) Branch15: Now at the 10 month mark with 14k miles. Just did another rotation before the 4th as we were taking a short trip. The tires look like new except for a little edge wear on the outside. Typical. Keep in mind my driving is mostly suburban and interstate in the southeast. Also, they are N filled at 34psi cold, the ride is a little firmer than most in a Limited, but with excellent handling for a soft suspension car.   My best guess, 40k miles is reasonable to expect, more very possible. Been a Michelin man for decades but these things were half the price as a set and my tire guy has Nexens on his big MB custom cruiser sedan. To this point they act like Michelin. We never saw snow this year so that's still an unknown, but in GA, no real concern.   So far, so good. But pay close attention to the balance job as these tires generally need more weights than a Michelin. Not a problem but make them do it right especially if you cruise above 80.... Hope this helps..
#14715 of 14761 Can Anyone Update the Best Tires For 05 Ltd. by vicm Jul 18, 2009 (10:59 am)
Have Michelins on my 05 Ltd, just past the 51,000 miles mark with them. Still have a few thousand to go. Looking for replacement tires. Michelin has given me good wear but would like other opinions on other tires. I have read all the posts on tires on this site. Lots of good info, but many conflicting opinions. Would appreciate any current info. Replies to this message: jlsexton (Jul 18, 2009 2:49 pm)

Passenger side front PW window button (on driver side) just stopped working last week but still works on passengers PW button only. Anyone had this problem (yet) (out of warrenty) & any advice on this minor problem (unless the passenger side fails also) Replies to this message: popsavalon (Jul 19, 2009 11:09 am) doobre (Jul 25, 2009 10:47 pm) jeffm5 (Jul 29, 2009 4:45 pm) doobre (Aug 09, 2009 8:52 pm) and 4 more...

Replying to: truckbme (Jul 19, 2009 9:19 am) It would appear to me that the problem is in the driver's side switch (window still works). Checking for defective switch or loose wire should be simple as removing the switch panel on the driver's side and jumping across the PW switch terminals to see if this operates the passenger window. I don't know if the switches are available individually, or only as the complete switch panel.
#14719 of 14761 2006 Ivory Avalon Floor Mats by cathedral Jul 21, 2009 (1:52 pm)
I just purchased a used 2006 Avalon XLS with an Ivory interior. I'm hoping that someone on here could recommend floor mats that would best match the interior color and fit very well. I'm leaning more towards plastic to contain dirt and snow, but would be open to carpet. Does anyone have any advice about what floor mats have worked out well for them? Thanks.
