Just got new tires...............

[oldguysrt10]

My OEM Pirellis lasted 18,000 miles. I stayed with OEM Pirellis on the second set and got 23,000 miles out of them. I wasn't pleased with the vibration on either set that I just didn't seem to be able to get balanced out by anyone. I looked at a lot of different tires this time and for a variety of reasons went with the Yokohama Parada Spec X. It may just be that I got a reasonably round set but I've tried these on a variety of road surfaces at a variety of speed and so far have no vibration.

In no way am I implying they're better than the Pirellis......there are too many variables. For my interest though so far I'm pleased I changed.

Drive-out was $881 for the 305/40 22s.

I considered going to the 45 aspect ratio too but tire dealers I talked to didn't believe I'd fell a difference beteen the 40 and 45 on a stiff sidewall tire so I stayed with the 40 to avoid the 3.8% speedometer error and the slightly narrower tread width.

You see a difference? If so I may consider the 45s next time.

Thanks,

Any pics of those Yokies?

I have always seen a performance tire start vibrating and roaring after they have been broken in. Maybe the yokos will be different:dontknow: The difference in 40's to 45's aspect ratio i dont think will be a big difference in speedometer readings, the rolling distance should be the same. Have you guys ever checked out tirerack.com? I buy my tires through them and have been pretty pleased.

That hasn't been my experience on performance tires. Tire rack had good prices but by the time I paid for shipping then mounting and balancing it was a wash at best.

I had them on the Hemi I traded for the SRT10 and liked them a lot too.

I recently installed the Parada Spec X as well and love them - they are great in the heavy Florida rain storms, and the dry performance is as good as the Pirelli's.
