When you buy tires don't buy the cheapest available, it's just not smart. Yeah I know the tread life is only 10,000 miles but I saved 300 bucks. It just doesn't make sense. Look to get the most out of your money when buying tires. Ie longest tread life for the money, don't just buy the cheapest hunks of junk you can find.

These have a 50,000 mile warranty.  $107.50 per tire.  I'll probably end up spending extra on the major brand, just weighing my options.

Mileage warranties are garbage, and they won't stand behind them no matter what.

 

 

Go with Michelin LTX MS, and be done with it, especially if you are going to keep it for more than 1 year.

Thanks for the info.  I know nothing about cars or tires.

No worries, I have bought and sold more cars and tires than I care to talk about.

 

 

LTX's have the best ride, hold up for ever, look great on fullsize SUV's, and are very quiet....they are just expensive.

This.... I've been putting this tire on my SUVs for years (although I think the LTX MS branding might have changed). A Jeep Wrangler, Expedition and 2 Tahoes over the past 20 years. They last longer than any tire I've ever purchased and well worth the extra bucks.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
