Hello,

a question.

understand a tire lifespan is usually 2-4 years or 40k mileage.
does that include rotation?

my stock tire going to hit 40k, slightly over a year but i saw the thread is still thick..
although very noisy..

yeah.. but if you align once every while, its actually quite ok.

in my last car..
i never do tire rotation..
the newer tire always go to the front, once hit 50k then i will place them at the rear and change another 2..

now..
the rotation is done by KMC..
hence i thought with rotation, it can last 80k..
since 40k in front, the other 40k at the rear :s13:

thats my logic..
my apology :s13:

Michelin tyres standard max 3years must change. Mileage not a problem.
