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.

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
