Probably have to pop for four tires at 60,000. It's certainly been a no-drama vehicle so far. Surprised they turned rotors. Most these days replace as not a lot of extra meat. === I have an 18 y/o Tundra with 130,000 miles on it. Good vehicle except for the rotors. I finally got some 3rd party rotors that are drilled and slotted. So far so good. I'm starting to think about replacement tires. Haven't done any research yet. Mostly paved road driving, a bit of snow driving. Need good traction in rain, quiet tires. 17"-ers. -- Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert Robbins, JackGoff 452471atgmail.com, Just-AN-Asshole, Tim, AMDX, and Gunboy Alex, aka the Gang of Dull, Witless, Insult-Tossing Trumpsters. If you are on this list, I don't see most of your posts and I don't read any of them. I replaced the original equipment tires on my 2013 Highlander with Michelin tires. Couldn't believe it how quick they wore down.. Costco got me a warranty credit and replaced those with All Weather tires....which are in-between all season and real winter tires. So far, so good. BTW... just turned 65000 kilometers on the clock. Whose all-weather tires?-- Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert Robbins, JackGoff 452471atgmail.com,Just-AN-Asshole, Tim, AMDX, and Gunboy Alex, aka the Gang of Dull,Witless, Insult-Tossing Trumpsters. If you are on this list, I don't seemost of your posts and I don't read any of them. I know. Confusing post. I thought you were going to teach him how to write. Is he saying that he wore out 2 sets of tires in under 40000 miles? ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- https://piaohong.s3-us-west-2.amazon...ndex.htmlBingo, Justine.You can't be as dumb as they say.
Don't listen to "they'. They're the ones who caused you to make
poor purchasing decisions.
Turning corners is hard on tires. I suspect your city driving is
going to wear out any set of tires quickly. the best you can do
is keep your tires inflated and check your front and rear end
allignment.

Amusing...now you're sounding like the Costco tire center manager.

Hey, if you park your truck, put it up on blocks, and remove the tires
and store them out of the reach of sunlight, you won't have any tire
wear!
