Sorry again you can’t make it Richard. But I got you covered in snagging that one item. And family thing makes sense. There is next year!

They are WAY quieter than the OEM tires. Have all of 15 miles on them so I don't really have any detailed opinions yet. 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.


Great choice in tires I feel. And yes the Book of Faces shows lots of new shoes for out 4 wheeled friends. Can’t wait to hear your review at Fest.

Two for broken steel belts, two for side wall ruptures and I can’t remember why for the 5th, but it was likely one of those two things. The patches were for nail-in-tread. The good thing is I haven’t had to spend for tires....yet. The bad thing is the wear is uneven, since some tires are newer than others.
Hmmmm I am hitting the 15k soon and never had a flat. If I remember well I had probably 3 flats in my entire driving life and we are talking about almost 2.000.000km
The next shoes will be Vredestein almost as good as MSP4 on dry but better in the rain.
