I've got about 41,000 on my RE92A's. They look to have a good 5, maybe 10k at most left in them. I'm on the fence about whether or not I should wear them out or switch with winter approaching, and I live in a snowy climate. I've only owned the car for about six months.
I stopped at two tire shops in my town, both of whom I trust, and they are both recommending Bridgestone Ecopia EP422s for a good and reliable combination of efficiency and snow traction. I was told by both shops I should see a 1-2 mpg increase in mileage in addition to better traction and a smoother ride as compared to the RE92As. The one shop owner has an OB himself, and he swears by the Ecopia tire, which he himself uses. He said he was very skeptical at first being in a snowy climate with a LRR tire, but he has been quite impressed.
Does anyone else have experience with Ecopia tires?
