Got the new Costco coupon book today it had the $70 off on tires but it only mentioned Michelin I hope they aren't dropping the discount on Goodrich tires.

We had a customer from Indiana come in few days ago with a complaint
about a thump.
Yup, he did a rapid stop on the freeway and skidded his rear back wheels.
We took the two wheels down to have them trued. When it came back,
there was not all that much tread left.
My mechanics told him about the Reaction Arm system and how that would
have avoided the flat surface plus stopped sooner.

If he can't afford the Reaction arms he would likely benefit from larger wheel cylinders on the middle wheels. Unless he is running disk brakes.
