Replying to: lasercats (Feb 25, 2009 8:40 am) The proper size is 215/55R17. As to brand and type, it really depends on your preferences. I'd suggest looking at Tire Rack. They have lots of info to help you decide. Replies to this message: paul3637 (Mar 15, 2009 2:17 am)
#190 of 216 '07-'09 Camry LE/SE-Need help regarding tires for new aftermarket 17" rims by paul3637 Mar 15, 2009 (2:17 am)
Replying to: 210delray (Feb 25, 2009 9:24 am) I have an '09 LE V6 with stock 16" wheels and tires. I have new 17" rims coming in 3 to 4 weeks and need help deciding between tires. I originally posted this in the '09 Camry forum; but this looks like a place where I am more likely to get help -possibly from someone that has replaced tires on an SE V6. I have already done what 210delray said to do in his post #189 to this forum so I am caught between the two tirerack.com choices that they tested on a BMW and possibly experience someone else has with replacing tires on an existing SE with 17" wheels. Here is an edited version of what I posted yesterday:   I bought an ’09 LE V6 about a year ago and love it except for the cheap looking plastic wheel covers which I knew I would replace when the OEM Bridgestone Turanza EL400-02 215/60R16 UTOG rated 260AA 94V which I projected at the time of purchase would wear out at around 20K miles. After 8K miles, I could no longer take looking at the el cheapo hubcaps so two days ago I ordered up a set of 17" Motegi US7 17x7 Brushed Aluminum Hyper Black wheels (with OEM 5.114 bolt pattern) which are on backorder and will arrive in three or four weeks. I will replace tires with 215/55R17’s - the standard size for the SE. I have tentatively boiled my choices to the Bridgestone Serenity UTOG 440 AA 94 V which meets OEM specs and carries a 50,000 mile warranty OR the Michelin Primacy MXV4 UTOG 620 AA 94H which does not meet the OEM V rated spec but carries a 60,000 mile warranty. Both tires cost about $750 for a set of four, installed with TPMS, computer balance, & tax. [The OEM Michelin MXV4 Energy UTOG 440 AA 94V is out because they cost $1050 for a set of four and get poor wet traction reviews on Internet postings]. TireRack.com tested both tires on a BMW and rated the Primacy slightly higher than the Serenity. Any advice or opinions on these two or any other tires would be appreciated before I just “flip a coin” to make my choice. I live on a school bus route that is 1.2 miles from a suburban Kansas City fire station where they keep the local snow plows so driving through snow and ice is not much of an issue. Thanks.
#191 of 216 Camry 09 SE 4 cyl needs new tires. by hvtec2002 Apr 03, 2009 (9:01 am)
Hello all,   I have the 17" rims and the stock tires size is 215/55/17. It is too much noise coming in the car and my friends told me to replace the tires with 215/60/17 and the noise will be gone. I understand it will give more rubber but will it ruin anything to the car? Replies to this message: kiawah (Apr 03, 2009 9:11 am)

Replying to: hvtec2002 (Apr 03, 2009 9:01 am) I think you'll find the noise is more a function of the tire manufacturer, tire compound, and tread pattern.....than the slight size modification you have suggested.   Go check www.tirerack.com   And look for their assessments of tire/road noise

Replying to: lucky_777 (Sep 27, 2008 10:24 am) The were on our 2007 XLE...90% highway driving...and need to be replaced now at 30,000 miles...disappointing to say the least.
#195 of 216 07 XLE tire Replacements by miter Apr 23, 2009 (7:48 am)
Replacing the OEM Bridgestone EL400 after 30,00 miles...looking at the Michelin MXV4 S8...Tire Pro says it replaces Michelin Energy MXV4 Plus and said that the Dunlop SP Sport 5000 S was "inferior". Got over 50,000 tires on previous MXV4 Plus tires with a 99 Maxima.   Any suggestions...I live in Rhode Island...some snow concerns. Replies to this message: berri (Apr 23, 2009 10:43 am)

Replying to: miter (Apr 23, 2009 7:48 am) New cars come with tires geared to low rolling resistance for better mileage and handling, but often at the expense of traction and durability. I try and trade right off the bat. I've been very happy with Goodyear Comfort Tread and Michelin Harmony. You also don't really need that H speed tire in most situations which will often save money up front and increase tire wear as well.
