Terri - the original tires were Goodyear NCT's all around. It is
normally not a good idea to mix tire manufacturers or tire
types front to rear or side to side due to compromised
handling characteristics. A very acceptable replacement
for the original NCTs are Yokohama AVS Intermeditates.
They are available in the correct sizes from Tire Rack for
well under $100 per wheel.
