Re: I think I need new tires . . .

The front tires are wearing evenly and are in much better shape than the rears. I was thinking of just replacing just the rears, but if I go with a different brand of tire, I will have to replace all 4. My lease ends in 5 months and I don't want to have to replace the tires until the very end so I may just stick it out as I don't drive the car as it is. It is best to replace tires right before the lease expires so GMAC can't come back and charge you an arm and a leg for new tires.

My run-flats acted the same. The rears wore in the center more than the edges even though I kept them at recommended inflation levels (32 psi cold), however the fronts were wearing fine.
