What would you guys recommend for tires? I have to get mine replaced soon and was wondering what is the best kind/best reputation? I am running Goodyear Wrangler SR-A's right now. the size is 265/60/r18. I have heard that the top choice would be the Yokohama Parada Spec-X, but I want all the opinions. Thanks guys!
 
i just bought some parada's last spring and they are great. Even went with a larger size at 285/50/20. They fit and work perfectly and give the fx a more aggressive look with the wider tire :top:
 
thing is our trucks take a 265/60r18 109v or 265/50r20 106v speed/load index.. best bet for a v-rated tires for our trucks are in the 18s are bridgestone dueler h/l alenzas.. rlly nice high perf touring all season tire, michelin also makes the latitude touring hp in a 109H rated and that will do but i wouldnt go under an h-rated tire for our cars.. they also make yokohama paradas but theyre not all season from what their catalog says, continentals cross contact lx20's which are a t-rated which is no good for our fx's and a bunch of other stuff, im sure they also make pirelli's, goodyr and others but im not familiar with those brands since they dont stock them at my job.. i bought my car a month ago and it came with hankooks and they're ok for now since they have alot of tread left but im not really a big fan of them..
 
I have a 2009 FX 35 and replaced the OEM Bridgestone Duelers with Hankooks (265/60/R18). Very noisy tire that I would not recommend. I understand the Michelin Latitude Touring tire is a solid all-season tire that is quiet
 
I have Yokohama Parada Spec-X on my FX45. Havent gotten a chance to give them a shot in much snow, we had a little a few weeks ago and they did well. Do fine in rain too, no problems unless stomping on the throttle trying to lose traction. I thought about throwing some nitto terra grapplers on for shits, but think the next set will probably be another set of yokos in a few weeks.
 
Hankook RH06s, Yokohama Paradas...or Pirelli Scorpions...can't go wrong with either of these tires. I personally prefer the Hankooks for the price but they have
been discontinued now.
 
I prefer Michelin tires. Have used them for may years on many different vehicles including my 2004 FX35. Have Michelin Latitude Tour HP on the FX now with close to 50,000 miles. May get another 10,000 miles out of them.
