I have them on a Honda Civic and have about 6000 miles on them. They replaced Michelin Metric-X that had lasted me 50K. I bought them for tread wear (100k), but I'm actually suprised at their performance. They stick to the road better than I thought (I could spin the Michelins, but not the Toyos). The tread is very very deep, probably a good tire for loose snow. It not a good tire for speed freaks, it has a low speed rating (its a touring radial). I'm not sure how they get 100K out of the tread since it seems soft - I noticed the rolling resistance was less for the Toyos than the Michelins. I plan to buy them for our Dodge Neon as well (the Michelin MXV4s are almost gone after 40K)
