    Thanks bro.

    This morning I had some new tires put on her, Falken Azenis 245/40Z/R18. An amazing difference in ride quality. I hate Goodyear tires so they needed to go ASAP.

    What size were the Goodyears though? Your tire size may explain a lot of the difference as those are some quite large rubbers for Eclipse. I know the difference was huge when I went from 245/45/17 to 265/35/18.

    The Goodyear tires were 245/45/R18, basically the same size. Goodyear tires are junk, at least those that come with a new car from the factory.
    If...

    Not great tires, but now and then they get something right. My Jeep ZJ had been wearing the same Goodyears on the rear axle since 1995 until I upgraded everything to all-terrains this fall.
