Well online reviews must be taken with a grain of salt. For example, for reviews of the Continental Crosscontact LX (245/60/R18) for my grandmothers edge, and the Goodyear Assurance tripletred (195/65/R15) on my cavalier they are slightly off. The treadwear reviews for the contis were very good, but she only got 32K out of them, and I noticed alot of reviewers did as well. And the Goodyear tires on my car many people complain about the noise level... Well, my car is severely lacking in soundproofing, and they don't seem loud at all to me. Very strange.
