while driving a
Toyota RAV4
(215/65 R16) on
a combination of roads
for 37,000
spirited miles
Replaced factory Toyo Tranpath M+S, this is a MUCH better tire.
Its strongest points appear to be:
- amazing treadwear (at 37K miles I seem to be only half way through them!!!)
- very good all round climbing ability on dirt roads, gravel, snow
- extremely resilient to damage from sharp rocks, gravel, cement driveways
- good grip on both wet and dry tarmac (the RAV4 weighs a ton and a half!)
Its weakest points seem to be:
- slightly noisier than most tires
- slightly increased fuel consumption
Overall this tire has been as useful as a Swiss Army knife for me, I would happily buy them again (I'll also be considering the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Seasons). I suspect that the Michelin Latitude Cross is among the lowest cost-per-mile tires out there, due to its incredible resilience to wear and damage.
