    We only got just under 170k on the eco710. Pretty sure the fuel mileage savings isn't going to justify the price for the tires. We still had decent tread,but around 150k miles they would be like riding on black ice when the roads were wet on turns. And heaven forbid a skiff of snow. We ditched them before we get into real snow! We are not impressed. Maybe it's just us.

    Have you seen them lately? They're no longer a Goodyear shop. Continental is their main brand now. I just noticed that passing by there on the interstate the other day ago. Not sure if there is new ownership or what went on.

    Been running on M710 for over 6 years and I told my boss, screw this. I'm sick of them, especially up here in Minnesota. They're putting on M760s tomorrow morning. Any knowledge or thoughts?

    Michelin...best casing, best tread, best compound, they're like Oakley ear socks, when they get hot and/or wet they get even more sticky
