Do I stick with the Dunlop 8090 or do I get a different tire?
12K on my 2006. Got a flat. $271 for the 8090. Slapped it on and rotated the tires. Now I have a bad pull to the left (from uneven tire wear). They will let me buy all new tires if I like and credit me for the new 8090.
QUESTION: Should I take this opportunity and get 4 new tires?
CONCERN:
I do NOT want to give up ride quality (noise).
I do NOT want to give up handling.
I do NOT want to select a tire with a poor treadwear (the 8090 is 280 which isn't bad).
Of course I would like improved handling/grip, though again.....don't want a noisy tire.
THOUGHTS? THANKS!
