More on the touring side? Longer life, comfort, and a/s traction over aggressive handling?

Ok cool. LOTS to choose from in the 195 size. Any price you want to stop at? Brands you like/dislike?

That's a performance tire though. Not really what the op is after.

Ahh didnt know you had such large tires on an OZ. In that 18", the Kumho LX Platinum . Good ride, quiet, 60K life. Great bang for the buck touring a/s tire.

In that case, longest lasting/quietest would be Kumho ASX.
