Decent performing all seasons in 225/55/16's

Suggestions? I'd like to not totally break the bank too if possible

Falken Ziex 912's are what I'm leaning toward right now, anything else anyone has experience with?

I've been happy with my BFG Traction T/A's. They were kinda pricey when I bought them, but IIRC my dad said he was looking for them after I bought them and he said they dropped in price a little. They handle great in all weather that I've experienced(rain/dry/ice/snow)

I had very worn Traction T/A's (back when I had CSVT) and they were still very nice in the rain. Don't know about snow though, didn't have it in the winter.

I was real impressed with them this past winter.

The BFG's and the Falkens are really your best options.

The BFG is a heavier tire than the Falken, and the falken is a tad narrower for the same listed size.

I had the Falkens you speak of, I believe, sucked in the sleet and snow, and I have heard others complain about them. Might want to do some more comparison shopping.

You leaning towards performance or a good trade off of perf and wear?

I just got a set of Yokohama YK520s for my dads 300C, i think they're around 144per for your size. 70K mile warranty and they are pretty good tires so far. Haven't driven it in snow yet, but it handles great in rain.

I've ran Falken Ziex 512's for the past 5 years on the Regal and they are great all around tires. I only get about 35-40K out of them though.

Kumho asx or traction T/a's

I had the ziex 912's on the benz and they were great all around. And they are cheap. So I would recommend those

goodyear assurance tripletreds? that's what I've got on the impala...great looking tread pattern, nice stiff sidewall for heavy cornering... AMAZING in the rain, I haven't had a chance to get them in the snow yet - I'm excited.

Another vote for the Kuhmos, I had a set of those I liked.

That's bux compared the the Falkens...you can get the Falkens for under $70 a piece

I had YK420's before, and they are pretty decent...but no better than the cheaper falkens

I didn't know that. My Dad wanted new tires, i found the yk520s at discount tire for 138, went and got them. He was in a pissy mood because of the Contis he had as the OEM went in 30k miles.

For all season tires I have to also agree with the BFG Traction T/A's. Have had them on my daily drivers for a few years now. Work very well in all conditions. The new vehicle we just bought will have them put on when it comes time for new tires.

i have 2 bfg gforce sports with 80% tread left on them. They're off my s2000 and i love them for the price and they're z rated. $80 takes them, if you're interested. ohh yea, 225/50/16 is the size, not really what you're looking for but hey, just thought i'd throw it out there

I have a set of 4 Generals same size if interested.
