[QUOTE="Jeff Jolley, post: 873050, member: 66905"] Rich, I think you may have a point. I've had Michellins in the past and they were great tires. Had a set on an F150, put 36K miles on ity and the tires still looked great and I mean at least another 10K-15K no real signs of wear. Put another set on a Ranger for my daughter, she drives spirited to say the least after 20K I took over the truck and was worried I'd need tires soon. I put another 12K on them and they looked as though they could go 10K more. Have a friend with an 07 Explorer with the Michellins, she has 24K or so and her tires still look great. She babies her truck and drives it very docile. If you drive a vehicle hard the first thing to take the beating are the tires especially with the OEM shocks and setup. Driving hard does not just mean spinning tires on pavement but it also depends on how you make turns, what your stopping habit are, and just the way you treat them in general. [/QUOTE]
