I got them for my car after changing the OEM Goodyear crappy tires twice. The dealer paid for them due to a defective flaw with the factory rims.

Replying to: bocatrip (May 20, 2006 3:36 pm) 04 35X. My RS-A's have 21,500 miles on them and need to be replaced. My local (Mavis Discount Tire) guy suggested Cooper Zeon Sport A/S high perfomance tires 129.00 each. They're supposedly quieter than the Goodyears and have a treadwear rating of 400, vs. the 260 of the Goodyears. I'm probably going to give them a shot. I've known the guy for years, and trust his judgement and experience. He would gladly sell me the Goodyears 180.00 each, but said that the Coopers were better based on customer feedback. He also suggested against going to another size tire (as did a Tire Rack rep) as that could screw up the VDC. I really do not want to get into "magazine" tires. Has anybody else tried these tires?

Replying to: lra (May 20, 2006 12:26 pm) I replaced my 03 Sedan Goodyears with the Avon M550AS. The Goodyears were quiet, nice riding tires (I'm in Atlanta, with good road surfaces) but terrible grip in wet weather. The Avons are a great value, I have 15,000 miles on them now. They have great traction, I think better wet than dry. I upsized to P235/50 17 size, does not change speedometer reading and look better I think. However, they make more noise than the Goodyears, with 15,000 they growl a bit more than I like, but that may not bother you. I'd expect about 30,000 to 35,000 miles before I need a new set. I entertained the Goodyear F1's, they have good reviews on Tire Rack. I hear the Michelins Pilot sports are great but make a lot of noise and I don't like the noise.

Thanks. I'm probably going to go for them. If for no other reason, Cooper is HQ'd in Findlay, OH-my wife grew up two towns away Replies to this message: joeshan (Jun 14, 2006 12:17 pm) texag64 (Sep 07, 2006 5:19 pm) wai (Sep 08, 2006 5:50 am) joeshan (Sep 08, 2006 10:55 am) macman246 (Sep 08, 2006 11:31 am) darrinzramz (May 23, 2008 10:46 am)

Replying to: joeshan (Jun 08, 2006 12:10 pm) Well, I got the Coopers. I also got an alignment-it turns out the front was a little out of whack.   The tires are okay. They are quieter than the RS-A's. Turn in doesn't seem to be as sharp, but otherwise they seem to be comparable regarding handling. I've only had them since Saturday; we'll see about the wet weather handling as it's going to rain tonight. I'll be driving to OH in a couple of weeks; I'll see how they are on the road.

#11 of 300 How to decide tires for 2004 G35 Sedan Sports Suspension by my_g35_sedan Jul 25, 2006 (5:39 pm)
Hello,   Can someone help me with how to figure out what tires can replace my current Goodyear Eagle GSD. These tires came stock when I purchased the tire and have already worn out (with only 25K miles). They are way too expensive and I can't figure out what a solid replacement would that costs less to give similiar performance and ride. Anyone have any help or ideas? Or, has anyone replaced their tires and if so, what did you buy and are you happy with them?   Thanks!

Replying to: my_g35_sedan (Jul 25, 2006 5:39 pm) See the post directly above yours. The Avons are a solid choice. I have heard very good things about Cooper tires as well. Yes , I know Cooper owns Avon...
