What's Fx family , my 45 need some 4 brand new tires , i went to town faire tire ask for a quote they came up with some Goodyear 225 each. I look online in onlinetires.com same brand as factory Hankook ventus ST RH06 shipped to my door for 683$.
what do u guys recommend ? Any other cheap place , or other better brand ?
Thanks ......
 
I believe one of the fovorite tires among the FX crowd is the Yokohoma Parada Spec X tire in 20". I know I sure like them.

Try searching here.
 
Well I guess both are good brands . And yokos are a bit cheaper , I found yokos at Sullivan for 751 $ installed , down the st...
 
Yoko Spec-X. Im also about 8k in and I couldnt ask for better tires.

They also did a great job in the heavy winters of the Rocky Mountains last winter. Very impressed. Quiet on the road and spectacular when pushed.
 
Ok guys I'll try the Yokohamas, cause my front driver tire is making too much noise , at 40mph it sound like a motorcycle . Really need tires !
When I fist heard the noise I tought it was a bearing., but the tire has good thread.
 
So you're replacing all your tires because 1 tire is making noise? How many miles on the tires? And how do you know it's the tire? If it's making that much noise, yet you have good tread, did a belt separate or something? That sounds a bit weird.

Yeah shadow , i guess u right , I did a tire rotation , and the noise didn't go away . I guess it's something else , , Idk if it's the 25mm spacers , but it doesn't make sense , cause everything was running very well. Just 2 wk ago that it started

Since you rotated the tires and the noise still there. It's most likely be a bad hub bearing. A bad hub bearing will start with some low level noise. It will increase rate with speed. It can be so loud like you have an extra jet engine the next day. Wheel spacer can't make noise!
