Ya got your money's worth out of that set ! !

The Lincoln head is barely covered, it's good for another 5-10k miles on dry surface roads.
New Tires by Winter...
Im constantly amazed by how quickly car tires wear out. I get 400,000 miles out of truck tires.

I'd never choose a long-life tire over one that has the best stopping and general traction capabilities. Just saying.
Has anyone tried the new TripleTred All-season?

I finally got around to dumping my TripleTreds. They did wear very slowly, although not that slowly, but they rode like bricks. When I bought them, it took seven to find four round ones. A couple of years after that I began noticing the harsh ride, and they got harsher. Glad to see them go even though they still had safe tread depth.
I don't feel the same way you did about the TripleTreds.
They took my '07 Nissan Altima 2.5S Manual from being barely drivable in the snow to being quite a fantastic snow car. Huge difference between them and the OEM Continental ContiProContact hunks of refuse that came stock on the car.
I would install those tires on every vehicle I own in a heartbeat if they came in all the various sizes I would need.
BC.

How much pressure do you put in them? What's your driving style? How often were they rotated?
Just gotta say that I've got a set of TripleTreds on my Sienna, and I think that they're the best all-around set of tires I've ever had on this or any other car. Good traction in rain & snow (for a non-winter tire), stable @ highway speeds, decent-wearing, fairly quiet, ride good if not exactly plush.
I has Nokians (WRs?) on this vehicle before, and the Goodyears are much quieter and longer wearing, while having almost-as-good snow traction.

I currently have the Assurance TripleTred All-Season on the front of my wife's Camry and the rear of my Hyundai.
The other axles have Michelin HydroEdge.
On my wife's car the Hydroedge were very noisy, but the TripleTred are quite acceptable.
Both brands are wearing like iron and both have exceptional traction in the wet.
