Hi,
New to the forum here.
On a recent road trip with the wife; I got really annoyed with the tire I now have. It was incredibly noisey for a large majority of I-5 thru Oregon. I am currently using Nitto Extreme 450 (I think) 215/45*17 for my Bortex wheels.
Any suggestion for a replace: 215/50*17 tires????? notice the taller aspect ratio. I'm certain this ratio will fit just fine.
I live in rainy enviroment but really enjoy the occasional flogging down twisty roads so good traction is a must........However noise is an important factor I am willing to scarifice some traction for.
Any suggestion much appreciated.
Cheers.
Oh this is for a stock 04'Legacy GT Wagon and the tires have alot of tread life @ 20K mi
