Civic
I have put roughly 25,000 miles on these tires in the last year since I purchased them. I will need to replace them and ask for warranty info at about the 30,000 mile point. So, I would not recommend these tires. My driving habits did not change, these are the first set of tires I've purchased from Discount Tire that haven't lived up to or close to their rating. For this tire, that is supposed to be 50,000 miles.

If I could give these tires a zero I would. The tread only lasted 8 months. No crazy driving involved. Just crap tires.
Mirage
The people at this location are great!!!

This is a great budget performance tire. Good grip and great traction. But the minute the road gets wet, they are no good. They just don't provide the level of traction in the rain provided by other tires i've purchased in the past. I most definitely would not purchase these tires for the winter or if you live in a rainy area.
