I sure I've purchased 25 sets of tires over the years and I try and read up on which one is best and cost effective etc but what I end up with is never quite what the reviews suggest. Anybody have comments about this and the "independent" reviews online? In a performance tire I understand my mileage may suck. I've gotten 9k out of a set and 30k on a dedicated summer tire. I've also had a passenger tire rated for 80k get 40k. I'm pretty meticulous about rotation, tire pressure, alignment etc. UTQG doesn't seem to mean squat.
I'd like to hear from the masses particularly in regards to treadwear which seems to deviate the most from online reviews. I buy them expecting to get XX mileage and it's always drastically lower even though people supposedly get good mileage.
BTW I"m sure somebody noticed I said 9k on a set. Those were Yokohama AVS intermediate with a 140 treadwear. Damn that was a fun 9k miles.
