No suggestions in Toronto, sorry.

Where is the 15$ money on $100 dollars spent?

I had 4 of these tires installed on my car a few years ago. Couldn't get rid of the vibration they caused after several balances and a road force balance. Car was perfectly smooth before I got these installed. Turfed them a year later. I do not recommend them!

Probably a shit install job by crappy tire. I also have four of these installed and they have been great. No vibration or road noise problems.

These are "exclusive" to Canadian Tire but probably the same tire (the thread pattern looks the same) as the highly rated TrueContact Tour which is #3 in the consumer reports tire ratings.

Originally they were even good enough for the odd Vancouver snow we get every couple of years but I ended up getting dedicated snow tires for since I have been going to the interior more often during the winter.

I had these tires a couple of years ago, no complaints. Quiet, soft ride and good traction on wet road. Very good tire for its price. Installed tires at CT and had no vibration.

Anyone have these on the civic, the vibrations are a concern. May need to dish out the extra cash and get some Michelins.

What do you guys recommend on a civic EX 10th gen?

Are you looking for an all season tire? Do you value performance more or are you looking for a touring tire that will give a nicer ride? Does it rain alot where you live if it does you need to choose a tire accordingly. Choose a tire based on your needs not based on the price.

I have bought a lot of tires from Canadian tire but always take them to my local mechanic to install and balance. Cost's $60. I have seen and heard too many horror stories of rims getting marked up and poor balancing results.

Are the tire prices in Canadian tire flyers/website include install/balance?

I want a quiet ride. So comfort more important than performance.

No, price shown is just the tire

I hesitate to recommend you any specific tire since my personal experience is with high performance summer and all season tires and premium snow tires. I suggest looking for tires in the premium touring category. Usually touring tires will sacrifice some performance for a quieter and softer ride and slightly better treadwear.

I have these tires on my Vibe. Good experience so far - comparable to my Michelin MXV4 tires I had previously. Very quiet. Maybe a bit soft compared to the MXV4s. I use winter tires, so no idea how they are in the snow.
