So you carry your tires in the trunk and use something else?

A friend went to 30k with the same re050's on a 400hp 335i, with 2 autocross events. they pretty much looked like slicks by then

15K for me, no daily driving but couple track events, two caravans to ZDayz, multiple Tail of the Dragon runs, trip to Z Nationals.

I'm @ 25,800 miles on my stock front tires. I'll probably need to change them fairly soon but they aren't that bad.

Rears were done for @ 24k.

At 6K I was at 3/32 rears, 6/32 front. I hope to get 8K out of mine. Michelin PS2's are the next plan.

Wow. one guy gets 30,000+ and another only gets 6000.

I'm almost at 10000 miles on my OEMs and they look fine.

I'm at about 24k on the stock tires. They still feel quite good, although I should change them soon.
