Which brandname is good for Honda, durable and less roadnoise, and reasonable
price?

Currently have Dunlop SF 20 tires which cames with the car, when I bought it
from Honda dealer. Now it has 30K miles on it. How long Dunlop SF 20 would
last?
Please advise.
Thanks

Best thing to do is measure the tire wear. OEM tires can go anywhere from
40-90K, depending on factors like driving styles, roads in your area, etc.

I needed tires for a Supra but was on a low budget. The cheapest
'performance' tire I could get was $72. Road noise was a concern, since I
have the Sport Roof and usually only drive the car on days I can remove
the roof.

I got Hankook K106 "All Season" tires (*I* sure am not going to try them
in snow!) for $72 each installed. The Wear rating is 320, so I figured
they'd be noisy. They are so quiet it's unbelieveable! The handling is on
par with tires costing $20-40 more. They mayt actually be a good all
season tire, but I'm not going to be finding out...
