I've had good luck with both Goodyears and Hoosiers and when I haven't, both companies have dealt with me fairly. I have no reason to believe M/T would be any different though it's been many years since I ran them for some reason. The main thing is to keep track of how many hits a set of tires has on it. For my C/SA wagon the magic number seems to be around sixty. After that, consistency starts to go away. I was hoping that we might get more out of the H/SA 2 door but we don't.

Bottom line:Hoosier and Goodyear both currently make a great product. I just bought a set of the Hoosier lightweights and we love them on our H/SA car and I've got a set of almost new Goodyears on my wagon. I'm waiting for an M/T sponsorship and don't pitch me any ***** about my stash of Toyo bias ply 9X30s...
