Watch this from ABC news about how to get tire age . Interesting

If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!!

This is like a line out of "My Cousin Vinny"
Quote "Most common tire used is the Michelin xgv 225 75 R15"

IM running GoodYear Wrangler RTS 225 60 R18 I have 48K on them and have some life to-em maybe 15K+ but if some of you are getting 70-90K there's somthing to be said for that.I guess I'll look into Michelin for my next set of tiers.

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need

Go with Michelins. I got 85k miles out of the last set. Now I have Goodyear Wrangler RT/S 's on this truck and they SUCKKKKKKKK.
Even on damp roads they slide. They are horrible in the snow. Any snow and I got to 4x4 it. Big bucks and they have no traction. Lesson learned.
The only way to beat BJ's prices is maybe if you have a family member that is a cop or firefighter, then TownFair gives them a public servant discount.
