    Yes, i have had the OEM tires since i bought the car. I just passed 40k and im taking my car in for another oil change, but i want to get the tires changed as well.

    I hear good things about the comfort treads. Do they reduce MPG's at all? How are they in the rain? Snow?

    Any feedback is appreciated. Oh, and what was the price for them?

    Go for expensive tires. It's worth the peace of mind, trust me. I bought some Michelin's on my truck, at $200 each it wasn't cheap, but they last 60K-80K miles and they are superior quality. I am reminded of it every time I pass someone on the highway with a blown out tire.

    I would go with the 185/65TR15 GOOD YEAR ASSURANCE COMFOR TRED TIRES Price: $79.00 each
    the ride is ultra quiet and good handling. Check out the links below:
