A few comments on the tire rack site on these tires lean towards replacement at 20,000 miles. Anyone have any suggestions?
As I stated in a previous post, I had Mich MXV4s put on my Maxima and ran them over 70k before replacement (they still had usable tread) so I was very happy to find them on my TCH when I took delivery. According to Consumer Reports they have the lowest rolling resistance. MXV4s are the way to go. Check pressure and alignment often.
