I was glad to see that the rubber sticks out slightly from the rim to help prevent rim rash. (I liked that about the Goodyears.) Even the guy at Discount Tire was raving about them.

I don't have any pics as the car is dirty and the wheels are .......... filthy.

I figure 20K on the OEM tires was pretty good wear. They were just getting down to the wear bars. I wasn't that aggressive on them so that may be why they lasted as long as they did. The guy at DT asked if I wanted to burn the rest of 'em off.


Road tripping to CF-IX next week will be the true test. Looking for better wet road handling at the very least. This also means I'll be able to drive on the colder Colorado mornings with no ice or snow forecasted.
Awesome, I love fresh shoes!
