Never heard of a freebie like that before. Pretty neat.

Good to know that some shops will sell the road hazard warranty like that. Like you say, cheap insurance.

Recently bought a 2010 EXL. It has the GY Forterras and are in good shape. A tire store will give me a $240 credit for them if I buy 4 new tires, doesn't matter what brand. I have always preferred Michelin. I had the Michelin Lattitude on our 09 CR-V. Any one have experience with those on the Pilot? I am tempted to take them up on the offer, yet am inclined to run the current tires until they are worn.

Hello,
I've had multiple tires from Goodyear on my vehicles and am extremely happy with the product and the service we have had. I've had all my tire service on my vehicles done at the Hummelstown Service Center (1151 Mae St., Hummelstown, Pa 17036) and think very highly of the trained staff there.
I had just traded my 2006 Honda Pilot in on Labor Day. When we had purchased it new in July of 2006, it had the OEM Goodyear Integrity tires . When those had needed replaced, I opted for a more rugged tire and went for the Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor tires. These tires not only felt better for the weight of the vehicle, they held up to a lot of different conditions we see here in the Northeast and made us feel very safe. When it came time to replace them after 65,000 miles there was no question, we stayed with the Silent Armor tires. Now with trading in the '06 Pilot, we purchased a new 2016 Honda Pilot. The vehicle does have a lot of weight to it and with safety in mind I had to check the tread life and reviews of the OEM Bridgestone Dueler tires that are on the vehicle. As soon as I saw the road condition ratings for these I checked to make sure what Goodyear tires (specifically the Silent Armor tires) were available in the size I now have. I was very sad to find out that the Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor tires are not available in the 245/60 R18 size. I would have thought that a company that was redesigning a vehicle and quoting about Safety, they would have researched a higher quality tire. Here is to hope there will never be an issue with the Bridgestone tires, but hopefully by the time I need to replace them you will please consider adding the 245/60 R18 as a size available for the Silent Armor Tires. These tires are by far the best tires I have had on my vehicles and feel they exceed my safety standards for protection of my family while traveling.
Growing up with in Firefighter household and now working for a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, I know the value of great equipment around me. Again, please look into adding the 245/60 R18 as an available size for the Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor tires.
Thank you.
This was the reply I received back from them...

Thank you for contacting us with your interest in Goodyear tires. There are no plans at this time for the Wrangler Silent Armor in a 245/60R18 size configuration, however, being that the Honda Pilot is such a new design, we will forward your inquiry onto our research & development department. A lot of times vehicles are so drastically changed that the tires are not thought of in this change. May you have the best of luck with the tires you currently have on your Honda Pilot, and we look forward to taking care of your tire needs when the time does come for replacement.

I'm glad that they will at least look into this.
