Now the 275-60-17's I have are much stiffer , but I love it ... way better handling than the squishy 265-70-16's mine came with !! Steelies make it lo...

If you change the oil every 3000-5000 miles... It will probably last the life of the vehicle ... 200+K miles ... If you neglect oil changes ... you will probably be doing it around 100K ...or sooner .... I have yet to see one bad in my shop ... But have seen alot of other Nissans having chain issues...
