        Got those Kumho Ecstas on my iX and I love them. Almost more than the Yokohamas' I had on the weaves.

            ASX's aren't particularly great, but I'm not exactly sure what I could recommend over them. I usually only buy track tires or occasionally snow tires.

              Thanks. She gets the job done. Great workhorse. But, will probably get replaced by a wagon wearing a roundel. AWD is nice, but only needed about 5 days out of the year. That's a lot of extra drivetrain to haul around the 360 days.

                  Back on topic. If you are looking for a great all-around tire, Continental ExtremeContact DWS is what I have on my wagon. Amazing tire, glad I spent the extra money.

                    You still have to go and pay to have them mounted. Discount will pretty much match the the total price, might even be a little cheaper.

                      Check out http://www.tirebuyer.com. They frequently have better prices than Tirerack. And a lot of indie shops get their tires from them. So, you can order them and have them sent to the shop of your choice.

                        Only time I use Tire Rack is when Discount cannot get the tire in time... otherwise its pricematch.

                            Not TT, A6. Same wheel and size really, just different lug pattern. These are 5x112.
