Re: Got new tires, Lost 5mpg
I wanted the LRR tires, but hated the low mileage I got from the Bridgestone tires that came on my car, so I looked at the michelins. The cost was rediculous around here, so I looked on tirerack. From what i remember, I got them for a bit over $100 a tire shipped to my door. I had my dealer put them on the car for $50, so I got four new tires for less than $500. The price for the bridgestones were about the same. I could have gone with a little cheaper tire, but it was not woth it to me to save a few dollars on the front end to spend more on the back side. I aspecially hated the idea of the bridgestones since they cost about the same as my discounted michelins, but only lasted 35,000 miles, where the michelins should last 60,000.
