Yes, the tires that come on the US version of the SF are excellent tires. I don't think that was an accident, considering the Bridgestone/Firestone problems lately. Hyundai wants its US customers to know its vehicles are quality and that's why they didn't put some no-name Korean tire on them in the US. You should not need to replace the tires on the US version....those BF Goodrich tires are VERY expensive and well-built.
