Are there any TSB's related to excessive tire wear with a specific tire? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I realize that these are suppose to be 60K mile tires so I assume that Toyota (or Goodyear) would pro-rate them and replace them. Anyone done this yet with the Integritys?
I am having horrible wear from the Michelins as well. Coming up on 20K and have 4/32 left. I expect they will be down to 2/32 by 25K. We rotate every 5K and the wear is very even.

My experience has been this is typical for most OEM tires. I think the best I have gotten out of an OEM tire is about 30K.

I did get the 100K tire warranty when I purchased this car so we are going to find out soon how easy it is to get my prorated replacements. One thing I am unsure about, is do I have to go back into the OEM tire. If so I will just go purchase something else.
