I've already worn out one set of Ecopias in 25,000 miles on the previous LEAF. Since I do NOT foresee these tires coming close to meeting the lease terms on my current LEAF, and I don't buy new tires for the dealer when I turn the car in, I just bought the Nissan Juke wheels and 215R45-17 Michelin MXM4 Primacy tires to enjoy while I'm driving the car.
Then, at turn in, I'll pop the 7000 mile Ecopias back on. I can sell the Juke wheels/tires for a substantial portion of what I paid for them.
So, you see, there are methods to the madness.
