Doug D Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 With the state safety inspection due this month it was time for new tires. The Kumho's were worn down to 3/32 tread depth at 42K miles. Ended up with Firestone Affinity Touring (70K warranty) for $550. This was for P225/65/R17's. Thank goodness I don't have 19" wheels. Normally priced at $150 each, I managed to get them for $112 each - Firestone had a sale on the Affinity's (buy 3 get 1 free or buy 1, get 50% off the 2nd one). I did check with TireRack and the same tire was $115 each plus shipping and still more to mount and balance. The sale on the Affinity's ended yesterday - I bought mine last Saturday (2/25), but I think Firestone has another brand on special. I don't think I'll ever get Kumho's. I was really disappointed on how fast they wore out. Grip in dry/wet weather was okay, but their longevity is not there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
