[QUOTE="roger dodger, post: 1443123, member: 18173"] [I]And like others, the front starts to cup at about 1/2 life.[/I] I was impressed w/ PR2s. Loved my PR3s (sipes in the rain). Mostly have used PR4s for years now... and never had bad cupping like some mentioned. My thought is Michelins run soft on the sidewall, and benefit from a higher pressure. I know the manual says 36/40 for tire pressure... but I always keep them @ 40/42 or even 42/42 when doing a road trip. Also... so often folks agree with me ... but their TP gauges don't. I use a dial gauge like this and check them a lot. [IMG width="234px"]https://techgearlab-mvnab3pwrvp3t0.stackpathdns.com/photos/33/29/454406_5159_M.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
