Which of the top 6 ultra high performance all season tires that Brandon posted have the best tread life?

1)Michelin Pilot Sport A/S
2)Yokohama AVS DB2
3)Bridgestone RE950 (V or W rated)
4)Pirelli P-Zero Nero M&S
5)Conti Extreme Contact
6)Sumitomo HTR+

I know that the customer survey results on TireRack.com show a tread wear rating but that's subjective and I can't compare UTQG ratings across manufacturers. Thanks in advance.

Bridgestone 45K

Conti will have about 35K

Michelin 30-35K

Sumitomo 30-35K

Pirelli 30K

Yoko 30K

Hope this helps!

Brandon -

I sent an e-mail to you about the BFG g-Force KDWS in comparison to the other Hi-Performance tires you listed but may be it went to the wrong address.

Anyway, did you have a chance to test and compare the KDWS with the others on your list?

I choose the KDWS because it has the highest threadwear rating (400) and wet traction rating AA, exactly as the Michelin Pilot A/S, plus I can x-rotate them w/o having to worry about the directional pattern of the tires.

Brandon, i recently bought Bridgestone Potenza RE950s, size 225/60/R16s, and Mille Migilia wheels for my 2000 LS400...they look great, and surprisingly are quiet and handle excellently, wet or dry...there is a little more tire noise when doing stop-n-go city driving, but once on the highway they are smooth and quiet as silk...i love them!....and pricewise, you guys blow away every one else...the wheels were (and still are) on clearance for $109, and the tires were $103 each, which beat the local Sears by $30 per tire...thank you for your forum and your great deals...Wayne Little
