I have a special counter intuitive theory regarding tires.

By the grippiest tires you can get for every vehicle and every member of the family!

I drive spiritedly, and I put grippy (soft) tires on my car. I don't get many miles out of those tires, but they sure do make me smile.

My wife doesn't drive spiritedly, and I put grippy (soft) tires on her car. Because she drives so sedately, she gets many, many more miles out of her tires than I do in the same car. She's had the same tires for 4 or 5 years, and I've been through 4 or 5 sets of tires in that time. She's not concerned with her car cornering at max velocity, but I'm happy to know that if she needs to swerve to avoid an accident or panic stop, that the tires will perform better for her than any high mile tire I could get her.

My stepdaughter drives a Jeep Liberty. I put the grippiest street truck tires I can find on her Jeep for the same reason, when she needs to stop short, she will.

tires are a small price to pay for the safety of your family.
