Well I had to break down and get new tires for my 2020. As much as everyone hates the Hancooks that come on the Expedition I have to give them some props for lasting 70,000 miles. Yes, 70,000, a lot of highway miles. One of the belts shifted and started to self destruct. I live in Michigan and they were ok in the rain, never hydroplaned. In the snow they were ok as well. I have never had a good quality tire come on any of my new vehicles, so I didn't have high expectation. Most of tires last at most 40-50,000. I gave Costco $1350 and put Michelin Defender LTX at each corner now. I can already feel the difference. I have purchased several Michelin tires over the years and they have always out performed my expectations. I hope it continues.IMG_3180.jpgIMG_3182.jpg

I just turned 46K on my original Hancooks. I'd say they have another 25-35k of life left. I don't have any complaints either. We put Michelin Defenders on my wife's RAV4, and I agree, very nice tires. Wear like iron.

Plus they are great looking tires. Love the tire black.

I'm assuming you drive fairly easy, because pushing it at all in the Rain made my Hankooks completely useless once they had 20,ooo miles on them.

I was just looking at Costco's website and it shows the LTX as $1001.88 with installation/disposal. Does Costco sell certificates for replacement? I've never purchased tires from them and I'm just curious.

Yeah mine were 285/45 R22 so they ran a little more. Hard to beat costco price with free rotation. They do sell a warranty package that I have heard is good. I'll take my chance. They do have a free Costco Road Hazard Warranty and Michelin has it own as well. Not as comprehensive but at least some coverage

I put the Michelin Cross Climates on last September. I live in the NE Ohio snowbelt and I am completely satisfied. Dry open road...quiet, wet road with standing water...no problem, slush, ice and snow...bring it on. I'll give props to the previous tires, BFG Advantage T/A. A bit noisy on the road but dependable performance in our climate. I switched because they aren't available on 22" any more.

Continental TerrainContact H/T tires have been very highly rated as well.
