Don't they normally get 50,000 miles on Michelin's? It can't be the 556HP/551TQ combined with a genetic defect of a heavier right foot causing a rapid removal of the rubber on the tires is it? Could this also be compounded by the sweet sounding Corsa's screaming as the hammer is dropped?

Shopping at tire rack for replacements as the wife gives me dirty looks and realizes she has over 9,000 miles on the TrailBlazer and her tires look almost new. :auto:

1. There's your root cause right there.
2. Corsas scream?
3. You're screwed. Enter bed from the foot for the next month.
