• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I have just gone over 16,000 miles and need to replace all 3 tires. What are other folks using now for tires, is it best to stick with the OEM Kendra tires?

There are many, many threads on this topic, including recently. Suggest you search the forum first, before asking everyone to chime in yet again this month.

16k miles on Kenda (not Kendra) tires on a 2015 RT is really quite good and I'm sure people would like to hear about your experience with the OEM tires on one of the relevant threads that has already been started.
 
My opinion on the tires.

there are many threads and I could not find one that gave a good answer. 1 person may like this brand and say they got a million miles out of them while the very next post says their junk and don't buy. Just as many people like the arachnid tires as those that hated them. Some like the federals and others don't. There is also an altima brand or something like that, that others have talked good about but then you hear people who cant stand them. For you I would say go with best that you can afford as you know the famous saying. Opinions are like *******, everyone has one and they all stink.

Do some reading on the subject then make your own decision. There are lots of options out there. When you buy car tires you'll likely save 1/2 off the OEM tire price. There aren't a lot of options in the exact OEM size though but other sizes fit.
 
TIRE CHOICES

Any car tire that fits will be OK for the front ........ But for the rear I recommend the General Altimax RT43 in 215/60-15 , or the Michelin Primacy same size ( it's costs more but is a great tire ) .......... I don't GUESS about tires ..... Mike :thumbup:

:D You've actually asked a good question! :clap:
But it's also one that has been discussed forever in here... :shocked:
(Search for threads about tires, and you'll see what I mean.)
It's sufficient to say that virtually ANY automotive tire will do a better job than the rear OEM Kenda.
As far as the front tires: I've gotten over 18,000 miles out of mine, and they had a bit of room left to make 20K. They always worked reasonably well, so there was never a pressing need to go to an alternative tire... (for the front!)
