saw some of your roads in seattle when i was there for the giants vs. hawks game in november and they were pretty smooth considering all the rain they get. i thought the roads in socal were worst than seattle but its still better than other cities.

did they look like mine at 25k? cause mine has looked like that since june. the actual pic was taken at 75k and the full set was changed at 75.5k. all i did was check the tire pressure twice a month and no the reading wasn't in km....
Wait...two items of concern.

1. You were in Seattle and didn't let me buy you a beer?

2. You have 75k on these tires? I must have read that wrong. I've been riding on wear bars for the past 500 miles so the rears are toast.

No, he has 46k on the tires and the car has a total of 75k miles with the car if I read his posts correctly.

During the winter sometimes it can take a little longer because of weather delays.

had many of your local beers while there mac & jacks, olympia and black raven. seattle not only had great coffee (caffe ladro, tully's) but amazing brews.

my car has 75k but i've had the HTRZ-3 since 28k...

Quick update and thread revival: After 5 years and 18k miles, the rears have given up the ghost. Had a scary time on the highway in the rain today, definitely butt puckering. The fronts are still like new. Even before that, I was breaking rear traction on dry roads, a sure sign of wearing, and they are noisy. I've already got a replacement rear pair ordered. Love these tires! They are even cheaper than when I last ordered in December 2008.

to Sumitomo!
