My rub on tires is the amount of tread vs the amount of other parts of the tire that usually don't wear out like the tread and help in driving the cost.
Been looking at different tire brands and different wheel sizes in the non-off road, hot dog arena. The ones that run on the highway and don't make a lot of noise.
Besides the difference in tire compounds the various mfgrs. use, there seems to be a physical element also that dictates just how much tread is on the carcass. Like 20" are limited to 12/32" while dropping down to the standard size (not optional as I have) for my truck is 17" and the tread is 16/32 with a tread wear rating of 600 vs 300.........but the bigguns with the flashy chrome skins are pretty and that's why I bought them. Guess I'll just have to "suck it up" and go with the flow.
