So my tires wore through to the belts yesterday and unfortunately I've been forced to make my tire replacement decision sooner than anticipated. I had my heart set on the Goodyear F1 All Seasons 255/40/18 (A spec Rims), but the place where I get my tires from had to order these and it would take too long.

I ended up going with a Toyo Proxe 4. Don't know too much about it, but I hope they are a good tire. The annoying thing was the tire place refused to mount anything larger than a 245/40/18, so I went with this size.

My main question is about the warranty they are offering. For $52 (13/tire), they are offering a lifetime warranty on the tires. It's not prorated, so even if I were to curb a tire and need a replacement 2 years from now, they would give me a brand new tire. Would you guys go for this?

I think its worth it. One replacement and its paid for itself. ESPECIALLY if its not prorated which is how many warranties work. I would jump on that

I did this with my factory tires after getting my first flat with a local tire store - since then I've gotten 2 replacement tires and 2 other patches for $80 ($20/tire) extremely worthwile for me !

I have a knack for finding every nail, screw, and other object in the road, so when I get new tires, I will be getting the road hazard insurance. Just one unrepairable flat (ie. the object is too close to the sidewall), and it pays for itself.

Those warranties are prorated and a complete waste of money and often do not include mounting and balancing.

if it is lifetime and NOT prorated get it...no question...

See my original post. Not pro rated but unsure about the mounting/balancing part. I did end up going for this.
