2004 CR-V replacement tires
2004 CR-V EX
P205/70R15 95S When replacing tires, how important, other than replacing all 4 at once on the CR-V, does the model of a manufacturers tire matter? For instance, when you go to tire selection for Michelin or BF Goodrich and select tires by vehicle year, model, the results may show only one to 3 recommended tire models even though there are many more tires of the same size in other tire models. |

Think with AWD or 4 WD your are suppose to replaced all 4 tires at the same
time. I have the same car and going to get Michelin Hydroedge.

For instance, at www.bfgoodrichtires.com, in the tire selector option,
if you plug in CR-V, 2004, it only returns the "Control Plus" model for size 205/70R15 95S. Yet Goodrich makes other tire models with the same specs, but they don't recommend them, i.e. Traction/TA, etc. Same for Michelin, it only returns Harmony, Symmetry, and XW4, yet there are many more models of the same size and specs. Some are under "SUV" and some under passenger tires... |

Be particularly careful about NOISE rating. The factory ones are bad for that, so you don't want to repeat that mistake. 'Curly' |

Only as it would relate to the vehicle's use. That is, if you never drive off/road or on snow or ice. An appropriate size and load rated "ROAD" tire should be fine and probably will ride smoother and quieter. A straight road tire might wear better too. > For instance, when you go to tire selection for Michelin or BF Goodrich > and select tires by vehicle year, model, the results may show only one > to 3 recommended tire models even though there are many more tires of > the same size in other tire models. -- Tp, -------- __o ----- -\<. -------- __o --- ( )/ ( ) ---- -\<. -------------------- ( )/ ( ) ----------------------------------------- No Lawsuit Ever Fixed A Moron... |

I ended up replacing the Duelers with Goodrich Touring T/A Pro series
70,000 mile tires. Much smoother, quieter. |
