I've got about 43k on mine now, but I think they have a lot left. I prefer the off-road look, so I thought I would replace them with something with white letters. Anyone have any ideas?

The Michelins i put on look alot more aggressive and have a quieter smoother ride, plus i plan on these lasting me about 100K so ill have to see how that goes. So far i love them.

I checked the Costco website last nite and the Long Trails were priced at about $110 each. How did the other guys get 4 for under $350?

Best guess would be the "specials" that are in the tire adds every few weeks. Cheap price for tires that usually dont last too long.

I did some research and CU rated the Grabbers higher than any other tire. I also found similar rating results at TireRack and others.

The warehouse clubs often have instant rebates for sets of 4 tires. They almost always have $60 - $100 off a set of 4 depending on brand.

Bought '08 element with 18" Acura wheels. Need to replace tires and have been advised that i can improve ride and handleing by going back to 16" wheels, plus save $ on repacement tires. What do u recommend?
