2018 TourX Tire FYI

[Parts007]

Parts catalog shows a 39132893, but no one has stock.. On the GM tire site I found a tire with the same TPC (22976133). It turns out they are different tires. According to GM Tire, the 39132893 contains noise canceling foam and the other tire does not.

Seems odd that two tires with the same TPC not be the same tire.

yes. came across this a few weeks ago. the one with the foam cannot be repaired.

I ordered some for stock. Rec'd them from ATD a few days later. I think the Genesis sedan runs these tires as well.

I thought they had a Techlink bulletin on repairing tires with that noise cancelling foam.

Found it. https sandyblogs {DOT} com/techlink/?p=8677

It's listed in the January 2018 TechLink under the following headline...

"Repairing ContiSilent Tires with Quiet Foam"

Hope that helps!
