  1. As a follow up, I went to my dealership today and had these Good Year tires put on: http://www.goodyear.ca/en-CA/tires/search/225_55_19 Look pretty nice, and they fit, and are the correct 225/55/19 size
  2. Yup I looked on the side wall of the new tire. The steel plate was right on top of the tire.
  3. Total 76k of that 66k on the 19' the rest on my winters
  4. Hey All, Thought I'd post this as an FYI to anyone who maybe looking for new tires. I went to my local costco looking to replace the Kumho tires that came on my 2011 crew as they are almost worn right out. Costco like many other places don't carry the 225/55/19 tires. They put my journey into the system and it reported back a set of Michelins at 235/55/19 would fit onto the truck. They ordered them in, put them on, they looked nice, but when i tried to pull away, i heard a rubbing noise coming from the front of the truck. When we checked, the replacement tire was rubbing on a metal plate that is under the front suspension spring. it was sitting right on it, no give at all. they had to put my old tires back on, and i went to my dealer and they have a set of good year tires that are 225/55/19 that will be installed this weekend.
  5. While not the best, they did ok for me. My 2011 Crew has 75,000km on it now, 54,000 with the Kumho's that came on it, the rest on my winter tires, and I am just replacing them now with a set of Michelin Latitude Tour HP's from Costco (they have a deal on btw right now) 235/55/19. They were fine in the rain, but not even one winter on them and I was off to buy a set of 17' winters and rims to go on.
  6. I kind of feel lied to on this as well, as the sales rep told us that this was a feature in the Journey back when we were looking. It hasn't been a big issue but now that i have a new born in the Journey, I'd rather my eyes be on the road, not having to look down at the touch screen to change songs or browe my podcast listings. Not only does the owner manual as drb227 says list the commands, i went onto the uconnect website for my model year and printed off the voice command list, NO WHERE does it say that these feature are not in the 2011s. Not a single command for playing/changing songs work (be it Ipod or even a CD). About all i can do is change from channel to channel, or from sat radio to FM/AM etc.
  7. <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote'data-author="generaltso" data-cid="25429" data-time="1357396115"><p> <br /> Even though it's in the owner's manual, that feature didn't exist in the 2011 model. They added it for 2012. Same with voice command for the Nav system.</p></blockquote> What?! That is total BS on Dodges part to even list that as a feature if it isn't even in there.
  8. Thank you Chris!!! I've had this issue since we got our Journey back in March of 2011, my dealer never was able to find an issue, I'll print this off and show it to them on my next oil change.
  9. Connected with the USB cable, I've tried with my wife's 3rd gen nano, and my 2nd and 5th gen ipod touch, notta.
  10. I was wondering if anyone has ever been able to use the built in voice commands to play songs from an ipod/iphone? I've tried all the commands in the manual, and off the uconnect support site, and I've never been able to play an song/artist or podcast at all. I can change between channels and inputs, but thats about it. What's the point of having this feature listed (with the commands) when I have to end up taking my eyes off driving to use the touch screen.
  11. Mine is 3km off, the Journey shows I am doing 125, but the GPS shows 122
  12. The break down was: 4 225/65R17 TBC Atric Claw TXI 102T $859.28 4 Wheel Blanace $ 92 Valve Stem $13.80 4 17 steel rims 319.96 Tire Collection fee 23.96 Total with tax $1478 Includes: Free install Free rotation (includes taking the winters off and putting the 19's back on) Lifetime balancing Free Flat Repairs Here is a pic of the tire and rim: http://www.flickr.co...N00/8149019047/
  13. Got my new 17 winters and rims put on yesterday, its a close fit, not much room to spare but they don't rub. They look great on the Journey too, make it look meaner
