That's not that bad, then. Michelin says expect 15k if you can't rotate and 30k if you can.

It's funny how people will spend thousands on suspension parts only to cheap out on tires. Tires are the most critical part of your suspension system. After all, they are the only thing that connects your car to the road.

I had like 25-30k on my DWS and still had like 5/32 tread left in the rear and 6-7/32 left in the front. Wonder how long my PSS will last since I'm doing 2-3 HPDE weekends this year.

Less than 10,000 miles.

So you're saying you're going to drive slow.

You probably also want to factor in that your brand new uprev tune is going to cause faster tire wear from increased torque and the occasional wheel spin.

m4a1mustang · 03-20-2013, 11:13 AM

In b1ades' case, his right rear will wear out faster than his left rear.
