When I had to replace tires on my 2003 Sonata LX I wanted to buy the same
tires. I bought Michelin mxv4+ p205/60r16 91H rated and I noticed that there
is no mileage warranty. I asked around and came to the conclusion that I
should expect about 30,000 from these high speed rated tires which is about
exactly what I got from the originals. Has anyone replaced tires with
something other than OEM spec. and had satisfactory results? I'd love to
spend less than $600 next time...

Thanks,
John D

John - there has been lots of discussion in this group about alternate
tires. DAGS a bit within the group and you'll find quite a bit - enough to
answer every question you haven't even asked yet.

I suggest you take a look at www.tirerack.com. There's no need to spend that
kind of money. I couldn't wait to get the MXV4's off my '04 Sonata, but if
they're what you like.
