How many miles did you guys get out of your stock tires? I am just over 7k miles and the outermost tread is already down to almost the wear bars. Not sure if I want to go with Super Sports or Extreme Contact DWs.

My stockers have 10,000 on them. Very slick, no traction. For my new tires I went with PSS's but hear good things about the Conti's too. Tough choice.

There is a recent thread on here with a guy saying he got 32k on the stockers. I thought I was doing something wrong cuz I will not see anywhere near that. I am hoping to get more that 10k out of them at this point. Guess I will have to flip a coin on which ones to go with as replacements.

Thanks for the info guys.

I got less than 9K on the rear stockers but still going strong with 27K on the front stockers and 6/32 tread left

I replaced rears with Nitto Invo's and they are pretty much toast now. But I can't complain about 18K miles out of em for the price, so I will be getting another set here soon

For what it's worth...I got around 30k out of my stock Bridgestones. I put the Yokohama S. Drives on...but will go with either Hankook or the Conti's after these wear; though I'm already 10k miles in to these new tires and they don't show any signs of wearing lol.

yes go hankooks they are good tires, well there are better brands, but again I dont really mind the brand so much as the driving ratings.

they are suppose to be pretty good in wet conditions as well.
