Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Any energy saver type tires are going to be very firm.

Nope. They're actually pretty squishy compared to a sporty tire like a pilot super sport.

My 2012 with Mich Energey Savers gets maybe 1 mpg better fuel economy than my 2009 did with Pilot Super sports. Grip sucks, handling sucks. Noise is about the same, ride is a touch less firm, they tramline more, and have much less road feel.

For the amount of grip and handling you lose and the tramlining, they (energy savers) are really not worth it, IMO.
