so basically i took my car into the dealer to get my oil changed and he looks at my tires and goes wow their bald.

and then he goes wait no their done already. with only 7,000 miles can that even be right?
i dont burn rubber that much...

atleast i still got two brand new ones on back...HAHA!

 

yup tire rotation FTW!! but yeah im at like 12500 miles and still useing the stock tires, lol no tread wat so ever, getting tires soon

 

I have a little over 19000 on mine & still 30% good tread left as next summer I'll buy new ones but I can't believe how some people only get 7000-10,000 out of them

 

Got 35000 out of mine with about 20 or so track runs. I don't know what you guys do to these poor tires. LOL

I've got 6k miles on mine and I can spin half way through second now, and they feel like they might be slipping around a little more as well.

I need to rotate them, but I am surprised that I am having a problem with them already.

 

15,000 on mine and they are still fine, but I also dont run the dog **** out of my car.

 

20k on my stock continentals and i drive like i stole it, tires are perfect still../// i did run gforces during summe rbut that was only like 5k at most maybe only 3k

 

hey, 90% of the time i drive normally, I just like to drive quickly sometimes.
I have to wonder how long these tires have been on the car, before I bought it though. I think that it sat in a dealers lot for a long time before I bought it. Dont know if that makes any difference

 

I needed new tires (front) 5k ago....i guess i'm lazy

*kicks himself in the ass for being lazy*

its to the point where i can see white threads on my fronts...luckly its sitting in storage

 

200AA thread life doesn't last long.

I got about 20k on the tires before I had to replace them.

 

I have just about 20K on mine and I'll be replacing them very soon.

 

I got about 12k out of mine. still a TINY bit of tread left, but not much.

I *did* drive the **** outta my car last summer though.

 

22K on my tires right now and it is getting pretty close to the treadwear indicatiors. I figure I am good to about 30K or 35K then I will need new ones.

 

I have about 9k and see no signs of giving up yet. If you don't it like tard all the time and rotate them you should get a good deal of miles out of them, not as good as most but sum what close. If I get 20k out of them I will be happy.

 

its called racing

 

i killed mine in 3000 miles showing nothing but cracks in the rubber! so what do u call that do u call that racing or pure evil mwhhahahahahahahhah! *FART* awkward silence.

 

12k on the Pirellis and I'd be lucky to get another 5k out of 'em ... they're not really made to be high-mileage tires.

 

you must have done some pretty cool burnouts.

 

Nitto NT555's FTW! After I burned my Pirelli's these tires have held up to the test of time thru almost a full summer and part of spring with 40% still.

BTW, I have 51k Miles

 

I have 26,000 on the stock tires. I still have a little bit of tread left in them. You guys must burn rubber all the time. I never ever burn rubber nor do I take her through lots of twisties. i also drive like a grandma though...

 

A nice way to check and see how old your tires are. There is a thing called a DOT number on your tires. Look for the DOT followed by a series of 11 or 12 number/letter combo. Then at the end, the last 3 or 4 numbers tell you the tire date.

Examples:
DOT A143 C3D5 1504
or
DOT A143 C3D5 158

The first 8 digits designate the tire style, type, factory, etc. the last four are the date in weeks and year. 15th week of 2004. If three digits it is for the 90's: 15th week of 1998.

Just so you know, tires have a lifespan of 5 to 6 years. Any more and you need new tires. I replace mine at 4 years no matter what. But technically the dealer isn't supposed to let you leave the dealership with tires older than 1 year whether you bought new tires or they came on the vehicle.

My car came with the continentals, and I spin my tires to about 2500 rpms in first. 700miles on 'em.

The stock ss/sc ones do go kinda quick cause they're so soft but mines are still good about 12,200 on mine

 

Makes sense, I think my car was built in 10/05 and I bought it in (Guess when!) 10/06... maybe thats why the tires are wearing quickly

 

12,575 and they're smoother than a school marms tit.
