Hello! I'm new to the forum and have already found a lot of great info. here. Thank you all!
I have a 2012 EX-L 4WD and love it. I replaced all 4 tires Jan. 2018 with Michelin Premier LTX All Season Luxury SUV 225/60R 18 100H tires. as per recommendation/talking to the Costco tire technicians, research, etc.
Currently the car has just over 89k miles and the tires have just over 22k miles on them. I have rotated the tires 4 times since the install. Twice at Honda and Twice at Costco. Also had the wheels aligned Summer 2018. I maintain the pressure at around 33 PSI. Also, no extraordinary driving conditions, almost all paved roads.
When at Honda this past Summer, they noted the wear after rotation and that got my attention. I took the car in for the 4th rotation during this past Thanksgiving holiday week and requested they re-purge with nitrogen, rotate and verify the wear. They show the current tread as such: LF=4/32", RF=3/32", RR=4/32" and LR=3/32". Wow! The care rides wonderfully, straight down the highway, no noise or any noticeable discrepancies...other than wearing so quickly. I have talked to diff. mechanics who have told me that X-Tours "go through tires more quickly than other vehicles"....hmmm. Not sure what to think or do at this point. I wasnt able to find a specific thread regarding this so apologies if repeated. Thanks again for and constructive feedback!
