Punctuation, sentence structure, & logic need a lot of proofreading Ruking.

Well guys, all you need do is to ask those kinds of one sentence answer questions. If the answer was provided in some to all of those 35 some odd articles, perhaps it was timely that Steve cited them. If any one had any questions after reading all of those articles, about my original post, fire away.

Maybe I'm missing something but I only saw one article about breaking in tires. The rest had to do with other aspects of tires and tire shopping.

I think the answer was that you don't have to go 45 in the left lane of a four lane when you have new tires like the idiot I got stuck behind this morning was doing, cell phone glued to her ear the whole way. About a dozen cars passed her and then cut her off getting back in the fast lane and she was oblivious the whole time.
 
The way she was driving, the adhesive tire labels on the treads weren't going to wear off for months.

That extends the tread life of the tires--she knows what she's doing!
 
I'm still looking for an inexpensive jammer to use when within 60 feet of a driver on a cellphone that's a danger to traffic.

If that is true, my original post indicated that one CAN (go 45 mpg) , albeit in the far RIGHT lane !! Obviously the one you described didn't get the memo about the correct lane choice !!!! Evidently your law enforcement doesn't care either !?

That's a speed limit issue, not a new tire one.
 
I didn't see any links that said otherwise, except for competition tires taking laps.

Agreed. The other truth is what I originally posted. The tires "break in" represent YOUR nickels. I just provided the objective numbers, all are free to do as they see fit.

Different day, same issue: tire break in (still hate it ) . Again I was in the slow lane going 45 mph (or so) in the right (slow) lane. Jensad would know the EXACT freeway, but I digress, as most folks move along at 80-95 mph ! I look way ahead and see what seems to be a highway patrol again parked perpendicular to on coming traffic. As I come within better sight of the officer, he has the radar gun going on, and I maintain 45 mph and surprisingly so does EVERYONE else in the other lanes, for a couple of miles beyond the parked patrol cars location !
