| Tire time for me too! Tony in Whittier - 9 years ago |
Have regularly used Bridgestone S02As. Having difficulty getting them locally at a decent price (I know Tire Rack has them, but I would have to bring them in to a shop for an install.). May have to go to S04s.
Can anyone comment on the S04s? Compared to S02s? S04s not available as a N rated tire? I also see a tire load rating on the non N-rated tires typically as 92Y 1389# (N-rated don't show load rating), but the S04s show 97Y (1609#). It is desirable to use a higher load rating that specified (92Y vs. 97Y)? Trade-offs when doing?

Really only needed 2 rear tires, but I will get a $70 discount card for buying a set. Really didn't want to mix different tire types anyway. I probably had about 10K miles left on the fronts (can be partially seen in one of the pics.).
