Default Help Selecting New Shoes for Car

I'm looking at Michelin Cross Terrains at $193 a foot, versus Goodyear
Wrangler SR-A's at $179. In other words, the price is close to the same.

So, how the hell does one decide, one over the other?


I'll tell you, I had a set of Wranglers, and I will never, ever put a
set of them on any of my vehicles. When I got Bridgstone Duelers, I
told the guy at the tire store that I'm actually happy those Wranglers
finally wore out, and he said he's heard that a thousand times. Those
things were horrible. They were always out of balance, noisy, bumpy
tires. Tire guy knew exactly what I was talking about. I like the
Bridgestones, and when it came time to replace those, I got the same
ones.
