accord v6 vs 4

I am using the Michelin's that came on my 06 Si, and at 17,000 Miles the
tread is still in near-new condition.

I have had tire-wear problems on past cars, but it was always suspension
related. On a properly aligned car with good ball joints and properly
balanced tires, they should always last at least as long as the warranty,
so long as you aren't beating up on them...

 

Last year I changed the spark plugs on our '03 V-6 Accord and it was no
big deal at all. It is a very nice engine. If doing it again though I
would probably just get the 4 cylinder for slightly better fuel economy
and less stress on the transmission. In recent years it seems like the
automatic transmission is a bigger Honda weak spot than are the engines.
