All of the sudden I see Mavis Tire everywhere, I'm assuming they bought out NTB or some other chain.

Anyway, I need some 22" tires for the wife's SUV and I don't think we're going to be driving it much longer. If we were going to keep it I'd go with the tried and true Michelin's that I run on everything.

Mavis has a store brand offering that has an 860 wear rating and an 85,000 mile warranty that's priced decent ($234 ea). The Michelins are over $300 for comparison.

Would you consider a store brand tire like that if you didn't plan on driving the vehicle for long?

Mavis not only bought out NTB, they just acquired Pep Boys. You're going to see a lot more teal storefronts.

I'd be fine with a house brand if I was planning to sell in the next 10-15k miles.

For my wife's car, spend the extra $260 on Michelins and forget about it. Not worth thinking about it, and a buyer might like the fact that you bought Michelins enough to get some of that back.

They forgot to retighten my A arms after an alignment, could have killed me.

They also broke the windshield on my Dad's truck and wouldn't own up to it.

Never again.

I'm in Katy. I've used Discount Tire for every vehicle since I got my first truck in high school except one. Bought the wife a used Tahoe when I had to take a pay cut after a layoff and used the local Goodyear for a cheap set.

DM me if you can, I'll reach out
