#47 of 51 Similar but now quite same tire by amiliv Sep 04, 2009 (8:38 pm)
Hi,   I completely blew one of the tires on my Veracruz. Ordered single replacement tire (tires were almost new, almost no wear), however when I got home I realized that they actually sold me very similar but not exactly the same tire. So I'm now with one mis-matched tire on my car.   The original tires were Michelin Latitude Tour, and the new tire that ended up on my car is Michelin Latitude Tour HP. Very similar in look (Tour has zig-zagged sipes, Tour HP has flat sipes) and a bit different load/speed rating (104T vs. 104H).   How serious is the screwup that Costco made? Should I worry about stability of the car on the road in situations such as emergency braking in severe weather?

Replying to: amiliv (Sep 04, 2009 8:38 pm) My buddy who bought one of these for his wife finally gave up on it and is selling it. I told him he should file a lemon law suit, but much to my dismay, he claims he's too busy at the moment to deal with it.   The vehicle is no more than 18 months old and has been in and out of the shop at least a dozen times, sometimes for things Hyundai claims they fixes repeatedly.   By the way, a lot of electrical problems and a very bad vibration coming from the drivetrain at speeds between 30mph and 58ish mph - so much so, that his wife is scared to drive it.

hello, is everyone only having the problem with the michelin tires? i have 29,000 miles on the Hankook tires, rotated them once, and have had no tire issues at all.

Replying to: amiliv (Sep 04, 2009 8:38 pm) The T speed rating is good to 118 mph while H is rated to 130 mph. Is the new tire Mud & Snow? If so, you came out ahead.
#51 of 51 17 vs. 18" tires by irishcasey Sep 15, 2009 (9:24 pm)
I'm considering a GLS with premium package which includes "upgrade" to 18" tires. My question - is there any benefit to 18" tires. Also can every model veracruz operate correctly with either tire. So if I ask the salesman to put 17" tires on instead of the 18" will everything operate correctly?   I checked Sam's club website and they have 14 different 17" tires for the veracruz versus only 5 choices for the 18" tires.   Your thoughts appreciated. Thanks.
