    13,500 miles on my Premiers, and they are already showing wear. Probably due to mostly short trips, lower city speeds, etc? I figure I will get about 35K out of them. PSI is at 40 now. Still noisy. Rotations and balancing has been done on schedule. And alignment check.

    If I stay with Michelin, I will get the less expensive Defenders. (Or buy a nice quiet Ford truck. ;) I don't care about MPG anymore... I hardly go anywhere. Retirement is overrated. :ROFLMAO:)

    My 2017 Prius has the same Camber issue as yours (right rear is reading -1.7). Wondering what "suspension" means. Is it a component of the frame itself to which the shock/strut is attached? Would be grateful for info. Thanks in advance.
