Were your original tires already worn out? I have original Hankook tires on my 2010 Jetta TDI SportWagen that I bought new on 3 Dec 2009, the vehicle has 26,500 miles on it, and I don't think the tires are half worn yet. I have always used the maximum psi on the tire sidewall which is 44 psi, and the tires have never shown any center tire wear, it is even wear across each tire.
Tires developed terrible road noise as they wore (Turanza's). Also traction during some icy winter weather got me thinking about when to replace them. Then I needed an alignment and that just forced my hand all together. The new tires are very nice, just stickier at the moment.
What kinda impact is normal? I'm down 3 to 4 mpg.
