A while back I posted options to the frustrating HiHy tire problem. Two weeks ago I purchased (4) 255/55/R19 Hakook Ventus AS RH07 tires for my 08 HiHy. They were $200 a piece installed, which isn’t bad for a medium to high rated tire with a 60K mile warranty.

So far, I’m very pleased with these tires. There is no rubbing in the wheel well and no impact on the turn radius. I have not noticed the difference in speed associated with the change in size. Nor have I noticed any decrease in fuel efficiency. Nor is there any additional tire noise.

I’m very happy with the tires and the new size.
