Treadwell uses new tire testing and real world tire life data to provide the most unbiased recommendation for you. Over time, most tires experience a falloff in performance (e.g. wet/snow stopping distance, wet/snow handling, noise) as they wear. In general, GOOD tires will falloff in performance faster as they wear when compared to BEST and BETTER tires.
