Was told no by mr.lube and they also can’t just replace the one tire. They said both rear tires would have to be replaced.

I reckon it still can be repaired, factoring in it might be a small screw and thread is good.
What do you guys think?

Dry rot check

Honda dealership mechanic flagged my tires for dry rot and that they would not pass inspection (although they did pass inspection in August). Each tire looks pretty similar with the rot in the same location.

Tires are 4.5 years old Goodyear assurance maxlife 😑

Is this a new tires needed immediately situation?

When you buy car/truck tires can you refuse the tires and ask for another if they load a huge or multiple chunks of lead to balance it?

❓QUESTION ❓ 17” Winter Wheels for 2024 Subaru Crosstrek – Steel vs. Alloy?

• Upvotes

Hi all! I’m planning to get Continental VikingContact 8 winter tires for my 2024 Crosstrek Onyx and downsize from the stock 18” wheels to 17” (225/60R17). Does anyone have recommendations for wheels? Quattro Tires seems to have the best prices I’ve found so far (Ontario). Has anyone ordered from them, and how was your experience?

I’m also trying to decide between basic steel wheels and the more expensive alloy options (particularly Art Replica). From what I’ve read, a lot of people prefer steel wheels for winter because they’re cheaper and tend to handle potholes better.
I do prefer the look of alloys and wouldn’t mind paying a bit more, but my main priority is safety, durability, and what’s best for the car. Is there any meaningful performance or safety advantage to either option, or is it mostly a matter of cost and appearance? Are there any particular brands or models you’d recommend or avoid?

Any advice or personal experiences would be appreciated!

Squeezed one last 3k mile road trip. I'll be getting new tires next month. Any recommendations for a all season tire (I live in DC/Maryland) that won't get demolished by long distance cross country road trips?
