In an autotranny car you'll probably get 100K out of them :chuckles:


haha I kid WiLL

it will depend on how you drive. I'm sure you can get over 30K out of them.

nice, though the tread looks so much more all-seasony than the originals... ah well

Make sure you don't have excessive camber wear, and rotate them every so often, you'll get some good life out of them.

generally I take it easy on any new tire for the first 4-500miles.

but if you want them to last, then you should take it easy 95% of the time

shouldn't be to hard with an autotranny :exnbp:


once again I kid WiLL

They only have a tread rating of 200, compared to the Yokohama's 280.

So Will, you wont get much mileage out of them.
