Replaced the OEM this fall at 34,000 miles, couldn't do another winter on them. I replaced them with Dunlop Signature Sport tires which seemed to be the best choice based on reviews and price ect. The Dunlops are vast improvement in handling and provide alot better traction in the snow.

My neighbor has the new Goodyear Triple Tread on both of his vehicles and he says they are excellent.

My Firestone Affinity's were replaced at 28,000 miles. They probably had at least 20,000 left on them but I hated those POS's. I got the car with 21,000 on it. Would have replaced the tires sooner but my disability made it very hard to pay for.

I had Pirelli P6 tires installed.

My firestones have 600 miles on them, and I plan on replacing them with BF Goodrich Traction T/As before the end of the year, as they just suck in the snow.

i still have 2 of the oem firestone firehawks on my hhr with over 120,000 on them....they still have a little tread left , but i'll be replacing them asap....i replaced the other 2 at about 95,000...i put the same firehawks back on and will be putting 2 more firehawks back on....they are not the best riding tires..i've never had any issues with traction....it is unbelievable how long they have lasted....i keep 41-44 psi in them and they wear perfectly even.

I replaced the Firestone Affinitys at around 60K, they still had life left in them probably another 10K. I had too many punctures too close to the edge. Replaced with 70K warranteed Sumitomos, Horrible wet traction, I did not think there would be a huge difference between AAA and AA rating, it is a real challenge to drive and stop in the rain.

Pretty much the same here, except for 18's w/Nexen tires. Had 30k on the stock, but would have gone at least another 30k.

thanks my 07 fall edition has 45,000 miles and i am needing to replace.
thanks... i am going to replace with the same size.


I had right around 20,000, but I got a little turbo happy with them. They probably would have lasted twice as long.

I replaces them with Bridgestone Blizzaks, and have a set of custom rims waiting in thew wings for summer to get some BFG KDW TA's.
