This is a V rated (149 mph) Reliant tire, with better construction than H (130 mph) rated Reliant. Traction A. Temperature A. 600 threadwear. I get +65000 miles at 40 psi cold tire pressure. One of the lowest price in several years.
Order online and ship to home. Return/exchange the tires if they are not made in USA and older than 3 months (manufacturing date stamped on the tire). Most tire noise is due to mounting and balancing issue like placing more than 1 oz weight at one location. Avoid tires from Mexico due to cheap labor and lower quality control, which can result in bulging sidewall or premature cracks on the tire.
I also use this tire on a Toyota Corolla that came with 195/65/15 rubber. Odometer is off by about 3% with 60 aspect ratio tire (sharper handling and cornering).
Tire installation can be hit or miss at Walmart. A good installer will check the rim for damage, clean the rim, enter the rim dimension into the dynamic balance computer, and reposition the tire if the balance weight exceeds 1 oz.
High threadwear tires are not a good value unless you wear out the tires in 4-5 years. 500-700 threadwear is the sweet spot for most people. Rubber deteriorates with time. A new tire is always better than a +5 year old tire.
Don't need for alignment if:
1. All tires wear evenly across the contact patch.
2. Car stays in lane for +4 seconds at highway speed on level road without driver's intervention.
