Hi,
Currently I'm driving forte 2.0 with 215/45/r17 Michelin PS3 which I changed in March 2015.
Due to one of the rear tyre hit on a divider, it causes some tear on the side of my right rear tyre.
Based on the tyre shop checking, they recommend to change both the rear tyre while front tyre are still good to go.

Need some suggestion from sifu here. Should I just change all 4 of them or stick to rear tyre replacement only?

1. Look for 2nd hand 215/45/17 PS3 to replace your right rear tyre if your left rear tyre is still usable.
2. Replace both rear tyres if your left rear tyre is unable to be reused, another brand tyre is okay also as long as the rear using the same pattern.
3. If got extra budget, change all 4 pcs to Michelin PS4 or your preference tyres, sell your remaining tyres to your friends, car club member or strangers thumbsup.gif

Plan to change only both the rear tyre to PS4 while maintaining the other 2 front PS3 (will swap front to rear when I get the new tyre).
The other non tear rear tyre will be used as a spare since my spare tyre already 6 yrs old.

The question is... is it recommended to only change 2 pair of tyre instead of 4?
Thanks for any recommendation.

While at the shop, one of the dealer is around and mentioned that tyre price going to increase 7% in April.

Anyone know about this? Thanks.
