Well i went to the tire shop to get a new set a kicks for my celi and after some miscommunication and confusion i found Mrs.Jones (my celi's name) with some nitto tires instead of the hankook ones i thought i was getting. Anyways i was just wondering if any one has or has had the ones with V speed rating im interested in knowing how long they last on average b/c they did run me 90 bucks a pop (with free alignment) and i really dont feel like having to get a new set after like 15k miles. Thanks!

My brother actually had these on his '03 Jetta for about two years, and I'm guessing about 30-40k miles. I'm sure they're not the best tire as far as grip goes and I know they're pretty noisy, but they do seem to last. His size is 225/45/17, I don't know what he had regarding speed rating but it's possible that it could also be V.
