Mine are 275 square. My fronts wear much faster due to autocross.

If I'm remembering correctly, I have about 55 autocross runs on them and under 700 highway miles.

Here's a pic 6 runs ago. I'd say 40% useful tread life left...maybe more. Rears prob are probably at the halfway point.

So according to this, the fronts are good for about 100 aggressive autox runs Ina 3300lb car.

That's pretty good wear. I've seen a few of your autocross videos on YT. That definitely takes a toll considering this car is heavy.
