Q: tires
I have a pontiac solstice that I only drive about 5000 miles a year. Currently it has 4 Goodyear Eagle tires and 1 is blown out that needs to be replaced. During my last rotation, I was told the tires look good so am guessing I dont really need 4 new ones at this time. Can I replace this 1 Eagle tire with a Toyo?
Thank you for any advice you can offer.
