Agreed, stock Goodyear Eagle LS tires have limited life - Toyota Yaris Forums

A-Dingo-Ate-My-Baby · 09-12-2011, 09:27 AM

only 23,000 miles on the 2010 HB, and the Eagle LS tires are about done.

I had seen others posting about the crappy life of these tires, and wondered...are they driving aggressively or what ?

well, I drive completely sane in the HB and my tires, after the 4th rotation,
23,000 miles, are just about done.

gonna get something far better for 2012.

I have the same tires on my steelies and still good, then again I been switching from wheels to wheels ever since I pulled out the lot lol

I mean mine have tread and will pass inspection, but they
are 3/4 gone. losing anti-hydroplane ability quickly.

gonna think about something for spring. I have 4 winter wheels ready
so I am in no rush.

I had the opposite problem! I couldn't wear the damn things out fast enough. I think we had almost 40000 when we got rid of them for ContiExtremeWinterContact on the steelies and General Exclaim UHP (205/40R17) for the summer

Mine are at 29000 and I'll need new to make it through winter.

NZ-FE Vios · 09-12-2011, 10:47 PM

Mine are at 27k and these tires are entirely too soft. The road easily tortures and shreds them in normal use. I'm trying to keep them as long as I can but I can't rotate again because the (now) back tires have too little tread left. I miss my bfg truck tires that seem impervious.

I wouldn't recommend the Goodyear LS for winter. I drove on mine when new during our first storm. Absolutely terrifying. Zero grip on a quarter inch of snow. Winters on immediately thereafter.
They are nice in the rain though. Better even than in the dry.

I concur on both points.

Im at 35k miles right now and still got like 30% thread left. I love these stock tires. I would definitely get another set in the future...

Yeah I went through last winter on them, and we had some serious storms. useless is the best way to describe them. At one point I had to park a block away from the house and walk home as that was as close as I could get to the house. I cant really afford two sets of tires, for winter/summer so I need to really start researching a good overall compromise.

45k miles on 2 year old tires. 75% highway driving with rotations every 5k. 6/32" rear and 7/32" in front. 37 psi year round

Guilty as charge,lol Since I put the rear sway bar on my sedan, I do like to corner more aggressively at times.......

Lil Abner · 09-19-2011, 10:47 AM

I'm at 54K on my stock tires, mostly crusing at 55mph. Sadly, they're not wearing out too quick The way they are wearing, I'll probably still have them next spring. And yes, I run winter tires. Hoenstly, they're not that bad of a tire. Not as nice as my Goodyear GS-D3's on my Celica, but not bad. Although, I wouldn't pay the price of them for a new set...

I've said before, these are all-seasons for Mexico. And you're close. Enjoy!
