I currently have Nitto tires and I will need to replace them soon. I just found out that they do not make tires of the same size anymore. Can you please advice the safest and best value alternative. I do not need to have the top of the line. I do not drive more than 90 mph. Thank you for your suggestions.

Hey I also have the same car!

and I also have the same TIRES!

Whoah! Best friends for life lol!

I asked tirerack what to do, they recommended getting the pirelli scorpion zero in the 280/55/18 size.

Forums recommeded 270 width...or 290....but i like tire racks recommedation.

Cheers!
