Really. My fate for years. Annual fronts semi annual complete. Now it is annual replacement of all four. I do not look at it like a waste; quite the opposite, it means the stays car is on the road during hard cornering, like the tires. Going to the track wears them out 10 - 20% faster I figure.

My very first tires did spin a little as I got used to the cars power. Never black patches laid down over distance except once. A learning experience not to be repeated.

Good luck getting more life from the tires.
