Anybody have any experience with the Toyo Garit KX on the G?

I had some Toyos on a Honda FWD car years ago, and they were fantastic. Can anybody compare them to the Blizzaks or the Hankooks?

I'm in Toronto, where the winter alternates between cold and dry, and very slushy, with one or two big snow days per month in the winter.

 

I just got quoted $1000 out the door for 4 Blizzacks installed, and balanced on my 19's on my IPL.
Is that good deal?

 

i have had blizzacks and pilot alpins on the G the pilot alpins win hands down no questions asked.

 

Yes, go for it.

 

I'd compare tire rack's prices. The tax should cover be equal to the shipping, more or less, then another $60 for mounting and balancing. Locally, discount tire direct matches tr's prices quite well.

 

My local Firestone dealer matched the online prices including the shipping, but I did pay more than online due to tax of $70 Oh well, I like to support the local economy sometimes.

 

Hello Gang,
I'm new to the forum. Just spent about an hour searching for this answer, which I think is yes?
I just purchased a 2008 G37s and decided to go with blizzak 225/45/19 for the front (bought new for $280 for a pair off eBay) and I found a damn near new pair of blizzak 255/40/19 that I was hoping I could put on the rear. I know going wider isn't optimum, but the price is right ($100 for both!) will these fit my rear stock 19" sport package wheels?
Thank you for your help and your time!!

 

255 width is fine, grab them while you can

 

Awesome! Thanks audtatious

 

I went with the pirelli sotozero. Been an awesome tire in the chicago winters. Didnt slide one bit

 

If most of your driving is in the cold/dry then yes, a 255 width tire will work. If you actually have to drive in/through snow, with a tire that wide you won't be getting the full benefits of a snow tire.

 

It's not optimal but it should work. Just have to learn the limits.

 

Ended getting Firestone to beat there price and got 4 new Blizzacks for $965 out the door with no charge to change them out in the spring!

 

Which model/size did you end up getting?

 

just put on 2013 Journey sedan at 1st days drop n freeze in SD. Rides great for CA car with these tires so far with grip.
have rear wheel 2003 Jeep Rubi...could use these next time or consider...
