Default tires
I know this has been discussed a LOT, and I posted this in another location but this may be the place to get some good opinions....10,000 miles and time for new front and rear rubber. Should I replace with the OEM Dunlops or something else? Is there anything better and what is the cost difference? Durability is more important to me than soft ride, although handling is obviously important. What are my best options here?
