Want to Replace Tires on 2001 Outback Ltd
Hi all;
I need help deciding which tires to purchase for 2001 Outback Ltd. I am completely dissatified with original tires (Firestone Wilderness) and want to replace all four tires.
Any feedback / suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I assume the current tires are sized 225/60-16?
Tires read p225 60R 16 97h m+s
Basically, this is our family car. We put on about 15k miles per year. Traction in wet weather and smooth ride are our priorities.
Do not know much about tires. One of our tires is pretty worn on side (DW says she does not scrape against curb, but it sure looks like she does).
I never felt comfortable with these tires since the whole firestone/explorer mess.
Appreciate your feedback.

Awd cars are real tire eaters.

Hope this helps.
My son got nearly 70K off his original tires on his '96 Impreza Outback.

If they last for 30K I'll probably buy them again. That's my price/performance point. If not, I'll buy my usual BFGoodrich T/A H-rated replacement tires. They've done well on past Camry (3 sets) and current Accord (second set).

Their Achilles' Heel is snow traction, I'd avoid them if you live in the snow belt.
