#31 of 58 New Tires by middleageguy Nov 07, 2006 (6:36 am)
I was considering putting BFG Traction T/As on my 2000 Impala replacing worn Goodyear Eagles. The T/As appear to be well rated. Has anyone had any experience with these tires? Replies to this message: samchinch (Nov 07, 2006 9:34 am) middleageguy (Nov 19, 2006 7:30 am)

Replying to: samchinch (Nov 07, 2006 9:34 am) I decided to order two new tires for Impala LS. Two of Goodyear GT-HRs had good tread left. I did like the feel and look of the tires. I ordered two GT-HRs and I having been waiting over a week. The tire company said Goodyear is on strike, thus fewer tires are being delivered.   Would purchasing two non-matching tires make any sense?
#34 of 58 Tire pressure monitor problem by nosirrahg Nov 25, 2006 (4:50 pm)
My brother-in-law just purchased a used 2006 Impala 3LT, and is having problems with one of the tire pressure monitors working intermittently. Any ideas as to whether this is something he can easily take care of himself, or something he should take in while the car is still under the factory warranty?

Replying to: nosirrahg (Nov 25, 2006 4:50 pm) It's a fairly common problem. I would suggest taking it in for service under warranty. Search this forum for more information on this problem.

Replying to: zjim (Jan 18, 2006 2:39 pm) I chose the 3LT also, 3.9 felt much stronger than the 3.5. I got rid of the 17" Eagle LS's for Michelin Pilot Sport AS, since the handling of the 3LT wasn't up to par with my recently totaled 99 Maxima (worked suspension, I just thought all cars handled as well as it did, boy was I wrong). It's better now.   Anybody know of a good shock/spring setup for the 06 Impala 3LT?

Keep in mind that treadwear ratings are not regulated in any way and are used more for marketing than anything else.   The Goodyear RS-A is a pretty mediocre tire. The BFG KDWS is a better tire for a lot less money, but still mediocre.   The Kumho Ecsta ASX is another step up from the KDWS, and getting into the range of "pretty good," for a bit more money.   For about the same money as the RS-As, the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S will simply blow the doors off of the RS-A.   If you don't require ANY snow capability, or are willing to swap snow tires when snow season comes, which is the best choice anyway, a Summer tire can give you another step up from even the best All/Seasons.   For less than the RS-A, you can put a set of Goodyear F1 GS-D3s on, which will simply amaze you, in comparison to the RS-As. The F1 is probably the best all-around summer tire on the market, with some tires giving slightly better performance in some areas, but coming nowhere near in others.   If you are wanting to save a chunk of change though, the Kumho Ecsta SPT is pretty darn good though.
