So right now my car has 35,845 miles...

I'm still on all four stock tires.

Given, the rears really need to be replaced before I hit even a small puddle. I plan on getting them changed and a good alignment done this coming weekend. For the past 1000 miles, I've been holding out just so I could claim this. Anyone else had the same luck?

Don't you guys find the handling suffers a great deal when you've got all those pillows wrapped around each tire?

I don't see how this is really something to brag about. I bought a sports car and drove it like a grandma for 36,000 miles and made my soft OEM tires last more than twice as long as if I had actually had fun in my sports car.
