damn thats a good deal. Thats like 55% off. Considering the performance it may make me jump the Michelin ship.

update : just looked it up and its only on the front AND looks like they raised the price on the rears. All in all compared to the PSS its still at about 18% cheaper for a set.

Yeah, only the fronts are on sale, hence why my thread subject says a specific size 225/40/19, rather than the whole set.

I get 40k miles out of these RE11s easily. Try doing that on a Michelin PSS...no way no how.

40K??? Whats the average tire wear on these cars? I had a set of re01s for another car and they went shot in less than 20k... The tread wear rating looks low on the re11

Michelin PSS usually lasts around 15-20k tops. Treadwear is low, but it's different for all manufactures. I've gotten 30-35k out of the rears and 40-45k out of the fronts.

I've only bought Bridgestone RE11s ever since my front OE Bridgestone RE050As wore out.

45k sounds way way too high buddy. Are you sure that accurate . I think even the guys at Bridgestone would say no way

I own the car. I buy the tires. Someone else changes it. Of course it's accurate.
