    I just picked up a used 2007 Touring (with 21K original miles on it!).

    The selling dealer put new tires on it: Yokohama Avid ENVigor 195/55R16.

    A couple of questions:

    1. What do people think of this tire? I'm assuming that the dealer probably put at best fair to middling replacement tires on this thing.

    2. Is 195/55R16 the stock size for the 2007 Touring? The car didn't come with the owner's manual.

    Yokohama is good. I've used them before. You can use Goodyear or I have the 195/65-15 HANKOOK OPTIMO H727 on my 2007 (had it 3 months btw).

    Oil switch to Mobil 1 5w30 change the filter only every 5k, top off and oil at 15k. What I do on my 2004 180kmi now

    Download the manual or buy for $15 (do a search in the forums)
