Nothing fancy but I don't want cheap Chinese ones either. What's the brands to get or avoid and where should I go to buy them (Monroe area)?

What kind of vehicle? SUV? Sedan? Performance? Do you drive a lot on hwy? In rain? Tire brands vary in re quality according to many factors, imo. Hard to say what's "best" or "good" in general without knowing some specifics.

ETA: Check the owner's manual for your vehicle. It should give recommendations & definitely specifies the size.

I've had good results with a few sets of Cooper tires on passenger cars.

Looks like three places in Monroe carry them. LINK

You post about powerful telescopes and black holes and shite, yet you've only ever heard of two brands of tires? You may be the weirdest fricker in the world.

I've had good luck with Falken tires on my Accord. Usually get them on Amazon.

Since this is the tire thread I've got a few questions.

My Bridgestone Dueler run flats need to be replaced. No room for a spare unless I want to just throw it in the back of the SUV.

Would you stick with run flats since that is what the factory put on the vehicle or go with regular tires?

If regular tires would you keep a spare in the back and sacrifice room, or keep a spare at home and a slime kit in the trunk?

Is Sears, Discount Tire, etc the best place to buy tires due to nationwide stores and warranty? (Rather than buy online to save a few bucks and have a shop put them on.

I travel out of town for work most weeks, drive 500-1000 miles each week, 80% of those miles are highway miles in the Southwest where the next town could easily be 50 miles if I had a blowout.

I also drive over rough potholes daily, thanks to desert weather.

tirerack.com. Plug in your car make, year, and model. Great tire specials. Ship to a local place and they will put them on for a charge. I ordered 4 Michelin primacy tires under 500 total. The Metry firestone put them on for 60 bucks.
