Folks:
I'm looking to replace my second set of tires on my 1999.5 Jetta TDI. It originally came with Michelin X Ones, which were great. I replaced them with some Khumo tires which I was not as pleased with. They were "ok", but not great. Somehow they "cupped" along the way, despite several alignments and even though they aren't completely worn down, I want to replace them.
My tire dealer says he has some Delta tires which are made by Cooper. He says they have softer rubber than the Khumo tires and the ride characteristics are much like the original X Ones. I'd say "Yeah, Right!" if not for the fact that he used to be the service manager at the local VW Dealer.
I live in Central PA, so I need an all season tire. I have a bit of a lead foot, but I'm no competition driver. I think the fastest I'v had this car going is 85 and that was on a straight stretch of highway. I usually travel 65 to 75 when I can get away with it.
Does anyone have suggestions for some reasonable priced replacement tires?
Thanks
David
