BF Goodrich
At 13,500 miles our 04 TL needed some new tires.
My wife now drives our TL so it should be pampered a bit more given her driving style.
We went to a local TiresPlus store and ended up with BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDWS. I wanted an all season performance tire that could handle occasional 'light' snow.
We discussed the Falken - they were not too keen on the longevity of the tire.
Continental Extreme Contact. Sales guy said I might like them but may be too sporty for my wife.
I can say having driven the TL this last week that the new tires are a step up from the OE tire.
They ended up putting in 245/45 17's so just a little wider.
Paid $960 installed with the 3 year alignment. My alignment was off quite a bit as I had put the TL in a ditch in a November snow storm.
FWIW
