| I have 60,000 miles on my '02 and am already looking at my third set of tires. Only getting 30K miles per set, even with an 80K treadlife. Is this to be expected? I have kept up with alignment, rotations and balancing. I keep pressure at 30PSI even though the sticker says 26 because of outside edge wear on both sides of the tire. Any thoughts? | |

Replying to: fussycrvowner (Dec 18, 2008 7:02 am) 30K seems a bit low but a lot depends on the compound of the tire and one's driving habits, load carrying, climate, etc. There are lots of variables here, so it's a hard question to answer, as to what is "normal". for instance, the higher the altitude where you live, the lower the tire life. Also, the further south you are in climate, the lower the tread life. Last of all, habits like taking highway off-ramps at double posted speeds (easy to do) will wear tires a lot quicker.

Replying to: phisher (Dec 19, 2008 7:04 am) I went to check the fuses and noticed the left and right headlights were different fuses. Figuring two fuses blown out at the same time would be just as odd as two headlights I just changed one bulb and tried it - worked, then I changed the other. I presume either a fuse is blown or it isn't - no intermittent operation- so it must be just a very strange coincidence on the headlights. Never happened before in 4 years and 80K miles so I don;t suspect anything else at this time. In the past month I have change two brake lights, two headlights and two door switches which control the overhead lights - all seemingly unrelated to each other. I should check the EMF around my house!!! Of course, with the help here all this cost me about 50 bucks, way less than taking it to dealer (especially the door light which really had me stumped until answered here). thanks

Replying to: fussycrvowner (Dec 22, 2008 1:10 pm) I tried the PIAA Xtreme White currently due Sylvania does not make H11 model (2008 Honda Pilot) in Silverstar or Ultra. PIAA is expensive and about same brightness & white as the SS-Ultra. I hope this PIAA will last double as Sylvania has. It is good & bright enough for me, street legal (DOT) and not like those aftermarket HIDs blinding the oncoming drivers. |
