How many miles did you get out of your stock tires?

Sorry if this has been asked before, I searched but to no avail.

You are looking at 12-20K depending out how you drive.

I have approximately 17500 miles on my stock tires, but they're pretty much done.

Just passed 20,000 on Sunday. I need to take a look at all four to see the wear. Either way I'll be getting new rims/tires soon anyways.

Thought I'd throw this in the mix;
I read something recently that seemed to indicate that with such camber as the Z has, we may get more miles out of the tires of we corner harder to keep all treads against the road. If we just drive "normally" the camber will not allow the tire to flatten evenly against the road, which will wear the treads more on one side of the tire than the other side.

This didn't mean very much to me because I'm not going to drive my Z like that to try to get more tread life. Just plain sounds stupid.

I've accepted the fact that, if that's the case, and I believe it is, I'll be replacing tires on my Z more frequently than on a "regular" car with "regular" camber, and that's fine with me.

I love my Z and appreciate the handling/cornering, and if that means buying tires more frequently, that's fine with me. I wouldn't change a thing about my Z's handling.

Default How many miles are stock tires good for?

wondering if 12k miles is good lifespan for the stock tires?

I am considering a 2011 sport 6sp manual and noticed the rears were bald and fronts were less than half tread.

just wondering if it's had a spirited life or just how the stock tires wear.

thanks all !

It all depends on how you drive the car. I traded my G37S for my Nismo & I had 20,800 on them. I could have possibly went another 8-10k more on them. As stated earlier it is all about how you drive the car.

I drove around with the wrong air pressure for most of the life of mine (bad tire gauge) and didn't baby them and got quite a lot more than than out of them. Not sure the exact mile because I switch to snow tires in the winter, but I know it was a lot more than that.

I have had Direzza Star-spec on my MY09 Z34 since 36000klics and currently have 64000klics on the car and tyres are still grippy and have 4.0mm of tread left ... I'll be disappointed if they don;t cover 35000+klics ....

Car is a DD (and I am not over aggressive with the car) but also gets tracked on these tyres

I have a '09 Base sport 6MT.

first set of factory REAR tires: 15k miles
second set of factory REAR tires: 17k miles

first set of factory FRONT tires: 26k miles - (still had a little useable thread depth but I was concerned with the dry rotting)
