    They are by far the best I have ever run. 265 75r 16's. 65k is the best i ever got from them though. I dont run near as many highway miles as you. They have gotten quite expensive. $250 apiece last time I checked, $1100 out the door. I bought Perrelli scorpians for $800 but looks like 45k to 50k is the max I'll see. Probably save up for some more Michelin's.

    How are they on gravel roads? That's what I mostly drive. My Toyo M/T's are done at 25k miles:ahhh:

    97% of my driving is on pavement. the rest around the job site. I have never gotten stuck in anything with them but I try and not put myself in that position.
