A set of four of these tires is very inexpensive. Go pick out a brand name (not Chinese) and you will be happy. Michelin, General, Bfgoodrich, Goodyear, etc... will all work. A set of four should be under $400. Enjoy worry free driving for the next 50,000 miles.
Thanks —my two rear tires are fine... will likely buy a pair of defenders but ideally in the width closest to spec (which at the moment seems anywhere from 175-195). Really just wondering if running 2 different widths (195 front, 175 rear) will cause me any grief.
