    Head lamps & tires

    I'm new to sight. My 03 has been taking up space in the driveway. It needs replacement head lamps, tires. I'm need advice on tires. It on BF Goodrich now, but I'd like another brand. The head lamps need replacing. Any sources on the lamps, and advise on the tires.

    OEM headlights are obsolete, aftermarket thru Amazon, eBay..better brands are DEPO and TYC.
    Tires..they BFG kdws are discontinued anyway..better options are Nitto Motivo, Cooper RS3A, there are others.. depends on what you want..all around, summer only

    You can attempt to polish out the factory lenses, the factory optics aren't very good but the aftermarket stuff is even worse. I only normally use aftermarket housings for projector retrofits.

    What are you looking for in a tire?

    +1 on Nitto Motivos for new tires.

    For aftermarket, I have had the best luck with DEPO headlights. You'll find them on eBay and Amazon.

    I brought the car with 79,000 miles in 2015, it now at 81. I'm planning to travel in late summer and put this car to work. Summer tires. I will look for the head lamps. The car is stock, but needs a few up grades. Things that I have to sort out without spending money twice for the same thing. Thanks for the reply.
