    Question Help with my tires: Civic 2008 Sports

    I could use the Civic section, but I think my thread fits this section better...

    I have only done just over 30,000 km after almost 6 years since new. Now I have probably 1-2 mm left on almost all 4 of them before hitting the bar.

    Ok, here comes the nooby question:

    1. Do I replace it at Honda or shop around?

    2. All 4 corners have been quite evenly worn, so would need all 4 replaced at the same time.

    Original tires are Michelin(Pilot Preceda) 215/45 R17 91V, should I go by these again or any other 17's, more handling would be nice, budget is around $250 each (car is still factory, no mods yet).

    3. Any other related informational comments would be great.

    thank you all.

    Additional info on factory tires(no idea what they mean, sounds good to me):
    ` Treadwear 240
    ` Traction AA
    ` Temperature A
    ` Tread Plies: 2 polyestef + 2 steel + 1 polyamide
    ` Sidwall plies: 2 polyestef

    Additional question on break pads and rotations:

    Just realised yesterday, rear break pads have been fully worn will need immidiate replacement, still lots left in the front, how come???? I haven't rotate my tires for probably 2 years or so, but tires have been quite evenly worn, why break pads are so different from front to rear?
