80,000 mile tread life claim is bogus
seasthonda's Full Review: Goodyear Assurance TripleTred Tire
I just had my 2nd set of Tripletreds put on my Accord today from JustTires. Overall, I was happy with the first set. The tires performed very well. Good traction, handling, not too noisy. I also like the looks of the tires.

Don't expect them to last 80,000 miles. My 1st set had 48,000 miles and had 1/32 left. I rotated them regularly and had my alignment checked about once a year -- it was never out of spec. The shoulders of the tires also seem to wear quickly.

The store manager said this was pretty much normal for Tripletreds and gave me a significant mileage credit discount on the new set. I paid $250 out the door including road hazard guarantees. He said they do this often enough for Tripletreds that he didn't even check my rotation history in the computer.

Amount Paid (US$): 250
