2018 Crosstrek - New tire advice -- Not off-road

[nancy813*]

Hi

I'm looking at getting a new set of tires for my 2018 Premium Crosstrek.
Looking for general highway driving tires in a moderate climate.
I don't do a lot of mileage anymore since retiring, and no off-road, no severe snow. So a general highway touring tire.
No need for a long warranty like 85k miles -- the tires will dry-rot before I ever drive that far!

I'm also a bit confused at tire size -- my original Geolanders read P225/50R17, but online keeps showing 60R instead of 50R. Does that matter?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

My mistake Tire size is P225/60R17, so no question there.

Just looking for decent highway driving tires, low mileage.

Thanks!

Check out TireRack.com. They will recommend several tires based on your year/make/model and needs along with reviews of that particular tire on your vehicle. Quite useful. They'll also deliver to you or directly to a shop that is going to install them for you.

Thanks. Their reviews are helpful. I think I'm going with the Cooper Endeavor Plus tires -- moderate price, decent traction for normal driving, and good reviews at various sites I checked.

So far, I'm pretty happy with the Cooper Endeavor Plus tires. Quieter than my original Geolanders.
