I figured this would be the best place to ask this question as it is neither an upgrade, nor generation specific.
I drive a lot of gravel road. Of my 140 mile daily round trip I am on gravel for a minimum of 15 miles, this is just if I do not have to make a run back into town for something. At any rate, I am going to be in need of some tires, something that will hold up better to the gravel. I just started a new job, which puts me driving more gravel. The current tires, Granada Touring somethings, only have about 30K miles and are shot, big time. I have though about raising my car, which now would be a great time to get the larger tires, but at the same time I need to keep my MPG up. If I do raise it then I will go with a taller tire, likely something with a little more aggressive thread. If I keep it stock height then I really need something that will wear good on the gravel.
What do you all have that has treated you well?
