I need some info. The Vibe is at the body shop so I can't go have a look. The car came with the Bridgestone 17" tires. Which Bridgestones are they. I'm looking at Tirerack and they hav several models in the 215/50's. Thanks

Thanks Mrizzle. I bugged the body shop today and they are Potenza RE92A 215/50/R17. A 72 year old gal ran into my daughter and in addition to the front end damage took out a tire. They only pay for the 1 tire but I'm replacing all 4. I'm leaning toward the Potenza G 009 or the Yokohama AVID V4S. Any opinions are appreciated???

It's a 60K mile V rated tire and if you read the customer ratings on Tirerack, it is rated quite well for wet, dry and snow traction. My 16 YO daughter is the driver of this car so I thought most tires would complement her driving habits. She'd best not try to emulate Danika Patrick;)

ouch! I hope the bumper bar thing didnt get bent to much or at all. You'll have to post up if you ever drive the vibe on how those tires are. Nice looking vibe though! love the black with 17" stock rims.
