Question TIRE DEBATE

My 1995 SVX had some kind of Bridgestones with about 1/3 tread when I bought it 2 years ago (with 30K miles! In Arizona! Now has 69K!). [I have a bias against Bridgestones since both my wife's Camaro (drifted crazily at high speeds!) and my Isuzu Impulse had B. tires wear out prematurely. They were also very expensive!] I switched to (Subaru-SVX.net recommended)Yokohama AVS dB's (now on second set). I only got around 25,000 miles on first set, but had horrendous inside outer edge abnormal wear on (esp. one tire) one side due to alignment being toed-out.

I liike this tire a lot, but don't have anything to compare it to (?)!

Good "Luck" with your Firestones. You're a trailblazer!
