Switching back to all-season tires from your winters, should that be your case, might reveal that new tires are in order. Making the right choice has never been more difficult or more important.
For this exercise, I’ve selected the common P225/65R17 size as the yardstick for our exercise.
Once again, the ratings could not be simpler: They are divided into the two most common price ranges in which I’ve placed a few recommendations.
These recommendations were made with the help of Talon Tire.
Here are the picks:
Best summer tire in the $150-$200 range
