one of my tires popped

yeah there the oem tires, Potenzas have about 8000 miles on them

are you sure about the 2000-3000 from what i was reading on the forums here a couple threads in which some people were saying they got 15-25 out of the oem tires? and my tires have 8000 and running pretty fine overall

was able to patch it up for now but mines are pretty worn down so ill have to change them all pretty soon / should i just stick with the oem?

was quoted about 1400 for front & back oem tires

Driving the car in any way spiritedly, 12 - 13,000 is about it on the rears. I am a bit obsessive though and my tires never get below 4/32" before I replace them.

If you have more than a few thousand miles on soft compound tires there can be enough wear on the old tire to make it significantly smaller than a new tire. On an econobox it won't make a lot of difference; on a sports car you can feel it.

If you are happy with the way your Z has been handling, there's not much sense in spending the extra bucks for better-than-OEM tires.
