There was something very wrong with the tires or Michelin would not have replaced 6 of them for free. City driving is harder on tires than highway driving as is the year around heat. I expect that.

Something is really and dramatically wrong - but I do not know what it is: I anticipate 30/40,000 miles and so does cetialpha5. Others are also getting 30,000 miles plus.

You are getting 60% to 70% less: 12,000 miles.

Granted your temps are higher. I think it must be something else perhaps the composition of your roads. I have heard, do not know if it is true or not, that sea shells are blended into the roads?

In the winter I used to run Blizzaks on my car and even those got 15,000 miles.

From the articles I have read, in Florida even summer tires are expected to get between 20,000 and 25,000 miles and all season between 40,000 and 50,000 miles.

We have lots of shell & sand streets here along with asphalt roads. We do not have gravel or concrete roads like there are up North.
