Default Michelins

Getting some Michelin Defenders delivered tomorrow by the brown truck. Saved a ton vs. sams or walmart. Have 4 goodyears on there and at least one measured 8/32nds if someone wants these for free. They were on it when I bought it. Looking to smooth out the ride. Put the same tires on my Camry 10 years ago or so and it worked.

]Guess I'll know if I'm buying a second xB depending on how much these tires affect things. And now for my pet peeve of the week. All these mods in just 20k miles and then you trade it? Mods do nothing for the price. Make sure you're keeping it before you dig in...

Amazing difference with these Mich Defenders vs the Goodyears that came with it. Totally transformed. Much more of a fan of my xB than I was a minute ago, and that was considerable to begin with.

Got a net 16 for my old tires. Better than nothing. Paid net 280 on Discount tire direct w/ all rebates included. Plus 80 to install minus the 16. That beat the pants off the 628 walmart wanted for the same tire.
