Default New Tires

Need new tires for my 2012 V6, I'm up north so I have winter tires I put on for about 4 months. Am looking for something thats a quality tire that will last a long time. Any suggestions and where do you go to get them and have them installed. Dealership did my winter tires which was fine but was considering seeing what it would cost at a place like costco. Thanks

Find a place that will install tires for cheap, the local dealer here quoted me $40 for mount and balance of 4 tires, then go online to tire rack or discount tire or something like those and buy tires from them and get them installed at the cheap place... or see if they will match the online tire price.

definitely look at discount tire. I got Continental Extreme Contact DSW's from them. One of the few ultra high performance tires with a 50k mile manufacturer warranty. Pretty grippy too; I love 'em. They were pricey though.

If you're looking for all-seasons I give another vote for the Continental Extreme Contact DSW's. I put mine on about a month ago and have no complaints. Sticky enough for general driving. I haven't pushed them hard enough to find their limits in a corner, but straight line they aren't far behind my previous tire, BFG KDW2. Much quieter than the BFG's for sure!
