Years ago, I was told by Goodyear that the life of a tire was dependent
upon where the car was driven. He gave me a reprint of an article that
showed the roadbed (ie concrete or asphalt) played a major role, but
also the asphalt in different states played an even larger role.
Supposedly the filler used in different areas were different and some
were substantially more abrasive than other areas.

Has anyone else heard of this. I tried to Goggle up the info, but was
unsuccessful.
