This is my first post on the forum.

I have a 2004 Cpe., artic white that just turned 23,031 miles. So far it's stock with the preferred add'l package including both tops, cargo shade and storage net. The tires are hard, noisy and in line for replacement. I have a set of wheels in shipment and will be putting new non runflat tires on when they arrive.

Anyway, Hello!

Thanks for the warm welcome. Just came in from the garage where I hooked the charger for awhile. We have had a little cold weather and when I took the Vtte out to lunch it seemed the old original battery was somewhat weak. I have a float on it but I think the unseasonably weather had an affect on it.

Welcome "Silver 48." I too just posted my first time this morning although I have been a member for a few years. Good luck with your tire and wheel choice. By the way, which "non run-flat" did you choose?

I'm in Round Rock.

I haven't decided yet. Considering Hancock, Nitto, and Michelin. The wheels are supposedly on the way and probably won't get here until next week. I'll post a picture of the car when I get these things installed.

Well, it's decision time. I ordered four 18X9.5s and plan too retain one of the stock wheels the same size as a road trip spare. Decisions of what tire (non run flat for sure) and what size is here. The rears will be wider than the front but everything else is still the question.

All of our vehicles are serviced by Discount Tire so they will help, I guess, with info.

Any suggestions from anyone running four shoes alike?
