Post Tires

I need to replace the stock tires on my 99 TL. Need recommendations for replacments. Stock wheels. Louisiana weather..hot and wet. Want something good on highway and quiet.

Appreciate input on size, brand and a good online supplier.

Thanks.

I like my Dunlop SP9000's but I am uncertain if the sizes are available for the stock rims since I changed to CL-S rims. Sticky, quiet, and driving in the wet feels REALLY stable! I would highly recommend them.
I like ordering form TireRack.com b/c their reps are knowledgable. I usually call them and talk to them though so I can get more info.

I have 225/55ZR16 Michellin Pilot XGT Z4s on my stock rims during the spring and summer. I like the size, but I think I would go with the Michellin Pilot Sports next time. They're a little expensive, but I think they are worth it. I believe Tirerack sells them.

Re730's are a good bang for the buck. No regrets!
