[Shop-talk] Truck tires

[Karl Vacek]

Ditto on the Michelin LTX M&S.  We put a set on the old Suburban over 
140,000 miles ago, and two of them are still serving well.  The other two 
were replaced under a road-hazard warrantee for one and an adjustment 
(thanks, Costco !!) for the other so we'd have a pair of new tires - that 
was 5 years and well over 50,000 miles ago.

They were so good I just put a set on the 2005 Yukon XL when 2 of the 
Goodyears slipped belts within a week of each other.  The difference in 
handling, traction, and ride was dramatic.
