Sports Package wheels
 

was curious, how often do you replace the wheels on a sports package and the cost associated

I'm sure you meant the tires.

People are getting anywhere from 10-18k out of the stock Bridgestones depending on driving style. If you want to replace the tires with the same Bridgestones as stock, they run about $300 each. The cheapest option is going to be the Hankook Ventus V12, which runs about $175ea for the front and $200 ea for the rear.

One of the more popular performance tires is the Bridgestone RE-11, which I think is a tad cheaper than the stock RE050A.

Do you mean the tires? I hope I don't ever have to replace the wheels!

Tires will last you 12-18k from what other people have experienced.

tires are about $1200 at tirerack if you get the same RE050A's. next time around im getting the RE050A polepositions. :)

bought my car nov 09, i've gone through 3 sets of tires since then. i currently have mich. pilot a/s on them at the moment.

dayam... :D

Damn performance tires!

I don't think I'm going to event get 8k out of my rears

can u drive straight?

spend a lot of time sideways?

How many miles? You may need to check your alignment.

+1 :eek:

:eek2: :eek2:




:iagree: :iagree:

i think its pretty much been answered...im at about 12k, i probably have around 3-5k left depending on how i drive. i'll probably be going to re-11's or the pole positions for these next time...it'll run around 275-300 a tire. ouchie.

oh sorry i've missed this thread a couple days, i now have 42k on my car as of yesterday. i do take the z to the mountains(shady valley, tn and tail of the dragon) and don't drift at all

wow... but i was going through tires every 3K miles carving the santa monica mountains over a decade ago every weekend so i suppose that's not too bad. :D

Hmmm, I got 35k miles out of the stock Bridgestone tires on my 350z.

well after long enough, they just become slicks right?:tup:

super thin rubber slicks.

Fronts were almost slicks...rears still had some tread left.

lol that's odd, it's usually rears that go first on a RWD car.

did you push it around or actually drive it? my stocks were gone at 10k and this was winter driving.
