Tires: New Replacement Tires for 1999 Toyota Avalon, bridgestone turanza serenity, toyo versado lx


Question
Hello Brett,

I am looking for new replacement tires for my parents 1999 Avalon in 205/65-15 and wonder if you can provide some input. This is a low usage vehicle that gets about 2K miles per year  is driven conservatively.  Main considerations are all weather traction and ride comfort.  I know you are not a fan of Michelin,  although the Primacy MXV4 seems to do well user reviews. Another  I am considering are the Bridgestone Turanza Serenity.

Answer
Hi Will,

 The Toyo Versado LX without any reservations.

 All of my children, my wife and yes my parents all ride on Toyo products.  As I have said before I have access to all brands and Toyo is my choice 8 of 10 times.

 The Privacy or the Serenity are good choices but, when it comes to the best bang for your buck Toyo is the product.  Consumer's Digest and it's readers' have agreed 9 of the past 10 years.
