I posted in the past that I was looking for a tire for my parents PT Cruiser. I narrowed it down to the Yokohama Touring S and the Goodyear Fuel Max in a 205/55/16.
I had my parents do the last rotation on their Toyo Proxes 4's. After the rotation. The fronts had 5/32nd and the rears had 4/32nd.
Well my dad just called me. They were driving home from Las Vegas, and noticed one of the front tires making a noise on the highway. So they stopped in their local Goodyear shop, "they bought the Toyo's from them". It looks like the tire was shredding itself from the inside. My dad calls and asked what tires he should buy from them. This Goodyear store also stocks Cooper and Toyo's. The set of Proxes 4's on their car now, are some of the last sets made in Japan. Since all the newer Proxes 4 are made in China now.
I could hear the salesman asking my dad about the Goodyear RSA's. I told my dad they are only 26,000 mile tire and they wear super quick, and get [censored] poor reviews. I then heard the salesman ask my dad is there a reason he didn't like the RSA's? I then told my dad to ask about the Cooper CS4's.
He got the CS4's T rated installed on their PT. This should be the last set of tires for this car. They are 78,000 mile tire. I see the PT falling a part before the Coopers do!
