I just bought an extra set of steel wheels with original handkook tires from a junk yard. The van only had 4,7?? miles an was totaled. I'm planning on getting 2 cooper discoverer M&S for the winter. I used the van with the handkook tires last winter 2 times and it did OK, but thoses tire are more like highway-rain tires. Time will tell.

My tires wore out completely on the inside at 27,000, to the point where the car vibrated badly. The Kia dealer told us it was because we didn't have it aligned. We did have it aligned and rotated the tires regularly. For our trouble they charged us $65 to call us liars. Don't let them get away with this again!

My 2006 Kia Sedona Goodyear Energy tires are about gone at 25,000 miles. They have been horrible for road noise. Does anyone have any suggestion on a good tire with very low road noise and a very smooth ride??? Im willing to pay top dollar.

I also have a 2006 Sedona with Michelin Energy LX4 tires. This is a 40,000 mile tire and I have 28,000 miles on them. They may make it to 40,000 but LOTS of road noise! I am going to our tire dealer this week and we are going to drive and try to determine if the noise is in fact because of the tires or if it is just a fault of the van due to poor design or insulation. If you are having the same problem with Goodyears then it makes me wonder if the van might be the problem. Also I have been looking on web sites like Tire Rack and am finding few tires that are the size I need. 235/60/R17 that have a good rating or review. If you or someone else comes up with a suggestion for a quiet tire or are suspect of the van I would sure like to know. So far I am very pleased with the Sedona EX except the road noise.

2006 up bolt pattern

I just put a long post up on the Entourage wheel and tires thread but here is the basics on the wheel specs.
The bolt pattern is 6x5.5"
the offset is high (about +40mm stock)
the center bore is a little less then 3 3/4 inch (or 95.3mm)
Basically it's unique to our vans but some aftermarket wheels will fit, and some GM wheels can be made to fit by having the center bore machined. I have yet to find a Toyota, or Nissan wheel with enough positive offset, most are only +20mm.

True, the tires are undersized, but always follow the tire PSI and not the car. Same is true with Ford and Firestone deal.
The tire company knows the tire better than the auto manufacturer, so follow the tire.

I'm probably to late but hope this info helps. I have a 2006 Sedona Ex that takes 235/60/17 tires with a 102T rating. That size if hard to find although there are about 6 on TireRack.com but not all of them are 102T rated. After calling Goodyear I found out that their Goodyear Comfortred comes in this size and is 102T rated. Just put them on my van and only have 600 miles on them. Went on a 450 mile jaunt and they are more quiet and produce a better ride than the Michelin Energy LX4 that were on there before. Tire Rack doesn,t list this size yet but you could call and see if they have it if not a dealer could get them. Also a couple of the Kumo tires come in that size and rating, I think.

I just put Continental ContiProContact tires on my 2006 Sedona EX. $535 installed ($610 - $75 mail-in rebate), including TPMS rebuild, road hazard, free rotations, etc. They are 102T rated. The Continentals have an 80,000 mile treadwear warranty.

Hersbird, I have read your post about the Hyundai and Kia Minivans and I'm convinced that you've got a wealth of knowledge now about wheel and tire sizes. May I send you a couple of questions off line about something I'm trying to do to a 2006 EX?
Thanks,
tom
