I can get a set of 4 of these for $200 on clearance. Just wondering if anyone here has had experience with them.Both tirerack and 1010tire have good reviews for them. I might pick them up tonight.

the ls-t had great tread life, but fair for cornering. very good on braking and just good on noise and other things....whats the v part...speed rating?

yeah, speed rating.

I had a set of LS-T's, lasted ridiculously long. OK in light snow, not impressed on icy road, don't count on them to be a winter snow tire$200 for a set of four is a great price for a set of bridgestones

Thanks for the info, Joat. I going to wait until tomorrow to get them. Fleet Farm won't mount them on my wheels since they are not oem sized. So I have to fine someone else to mount them for me.

the V rating means they will be soft, and won't last very long. Joatman's T rated tires were a very hard compound compared to the V

They have some LS-T's as well. I'll have to double check them tomorrow. Thanks for the heads-up.

Well I went with the 205/60/16 Turanza LS-V's for only $50/each. Getting them mounted tomorrow for only $10 each w/road hazard warranty. they aren't the greatest tire but I couldn't pass them up for the price. PS- My current tires are for sale: http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=30443

I had the new tires installed this morning and the difference is like night and day. The ride is so much smoother and quieter.

After driving on them for a week. I love them!!! Super quiet, grip well on the turns, went thru a large puddle with no hydroplaning at 65mph. They absorb the bumps in the road much better. They should do well in the snow on my AWD, too. Definitely worth the $240(out the door) for the tires, mounting & balancing.
