I've used up several sets of Goodyear Viva's on Malibu and Stratus, better than the first walmart Douglas Xtrac,s(wore funny) but I think Xtrac's II's are better so far. Price seems high, I think I paid $80 for last 2 Xtrac II's I bought for the Impala and vivas were almost same price. Xtrac's seem to be gone from walmart website so maybe gone. Run of mill average tires, 40-50,000 miles, didn't track MPG enough to say, traction as good as Cobalts OEM. I'd call local walmarts see if they have any xtrac II's left.

I like a big MPG number, but payback is my key, don't think LRR tires pay for themself, and getting more safety aware.
