Asked by Emelody Feb 27, 2022 at 06:15 PM about the 2010 Toyota Avalon Limited
Question type: Shopping & Pricing
I have 2010 used Avalon limited. I drive about 9k miles per yr. Was told tires
should be replaced, every 5 or 6 yrs. Should I buy top brand or mid priced
tires? I have read mixed reviews on all brands. What would be best tires for
me? Thanks

Where do you live? Do you see some snow and Ice occasionally, then all seasons are what you need. Most name brand tires are good, like Michelin, Continental, Goodyear, etc. Buy the best tires you can for your budget, it's the only thing between you and the road.
I live in the Washington, D.C. area. We do get some snow and ice. Thanks
Plus it's true that after 5 years the rubber on the tires begins to deteriorate. You'll start to see signs of dry rot and the tires will become increasingly unsafe, especially on the highway. I'd suggest a name brand tire rated at around 50,000 miles for you. Since you drive around 9,000 miles per year too much over that and you're wasting money. Hope that helps! Jim
i was told major brands Nexen and BF Goodrich, have quality and affordable tires. But, that costly Continental Pure Contact LS, would be better, for Avalon. I will get whichever, is on sale. There are pros and cons, in all tires, I see. Thanks to all, for your help. God Bless You.
