I thought you guys may be interested as this tire comes also in Murano OEM size.
I put a set of new YK520 on my FX35 a few weeks ago. Right now I have 1,000 miles and my wife and I could not be happier. Prior to that we had Bridgestone Potenza RE92, two set and each lasted only 30,000 miles. So when the time came I decided to look somewhere else, especially that the Potenza would cost me $1,400 out of the door, no milage warranty. So we opted for the YK520 - $900 out of the door, with road hazard insurance and 60,000 miles prorated warranty. After 1,000 miles I can say the tire is very quiet and has nice ride. Much nice that with the Potenzas. Handling is still good. Somehow I feel more assured while driving in the rain. Why I am saying it? You can get the same tire in Murano size. I believe it is a good choice. Maybe more expensive that GDY but I think it is worth the money…… |

| Looking at the specs it does seem like a good choice. Its not some whimpy S or T rated tire either, and the spec sheet specifically lists Murano as an application. |

Good to know; thanks Kris.
It's great to finally have some choices for the MO's shoes. When I first needed new tires for my MO; GY Eagles were about the only choice that was available around here. I'll soon be on my third set of rubbers so I'll look into them.
Cheers! |

| Do a search for YK520. A few of us have already written up our thoughts. I have them on mine, with few thousand on them now. Water traction is amazing, but I find them to be louder than the OEM tires. For me, living in Seattle, that's a very fair trade-off. |

Corin,
how many miles you have now? Are they becoming loeder now? Or were they like that from the begining... |
