my stock michelins (205/60-16) died before 23k. V-rated(?)...so about 23k miles. $450 a set

my yokohama a520's (225/55-16) died before 34k. Z or V-rated(?)... so about 11k miles. $400 a set

my nankang sport tires (225/40-18) are at 44k and holding on very strong. treadwear: 340. H-rated... so about 10k miles and 1/2 life left. $300 a set

who woulda known a korean-brand tire would work so darn well? too bad i'm not SUPPOSED to go over 130 with these.
