Boring Tires Recommendation - Toyota Yaris Forums

severous01 · 07-09-2010, 10:58 PM

there's way more involved than a number. camber, caster, toe adjustments, driving habits, type of vehicle tires are on, how car's driven and all has to do with the number. alignment is key to getting most mileage out of tires, that and rotating.

a few hints and i'm sure you've heard it before and just ignored...rotate, balance, alignment. they're offered as extras with every oil change you've had you just ignored them cuz you want the oil changed and only expected to pay 20 bux.

take care of them, drive on them easy (no donuts or spinning wheels...that heats up tires and changes the tread composition making them harder, making them spin more making them harder....bla bla bla...) and rotate your tires every oil change. you'll get 50k plus on the stockers...

usually the higher the number the longer it lasts...but also the less performance you get out of it (generally...)
