Best tyre's for 07 Liberty GT-B?

Postby jeanpaul6150 » Mon Feb 20, 2012 6:10 pm

Hi Guys,

I need to change the tyre's on my car. What would be the best type for a 2007 Liberty GT Spec B wagon? I've heard Yokohama is the way to go?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

How longs a piece of string?

Very open ended question.

Whats your budget? How much do you drive it? Safety in wet? Performance tyre? Occasional track day? List goes on ..

Litte more info needed..

I use the car everyday as its my work car, so no track day. I would prefer a performance tyre. Budget = nothing over $300

Walk out and look at what's written on the sidewall.

Always a good place to start when buying tyres.

Currently have Falken tyres. 215/45 Z R18 93W. I made a typo earlier (215 not 245).

I'm reading some excellent reviews about these tyres.

jeanpaul6150 where do you live? There are a few cheap deals on ebay but remember to add freight and fitting/balancing possible wheel alignment . I have found packaged deals to work out better

Hankook K110 would be my recommendation. I've recommended them time and time again, and used them for three of my wheel combinations across three cars. Great performing, both in dry and wet, and lasts a long time too (i.e. good treadwear characteristics).
