Were you eco modding your air at XXpsi over side wall, placard, or aiming for balanced wear? Like I would adjust my air pressure for best road track proformance/ best contact patch wear, braking and reduced traction (sand /gravel/ ice on road) /best forward bite, lowest /most even tread temperature?
Tires Handled great, I ran them at 55PSI on my 2005 Focus, I was able to still do the speed limit with 3 inches of snow on the ground and felt in control like it was dry ground, I feel I didn't see much return on FE until around 5000 Miles, they were definitely sticky, I drove mostly Payment, when I drove gravel roads, they did well to absorb the bumps unless I was throwing the car around
