Yep, I also got two year free road hazard protection when I bought them from tirerack.com.

We don't have any tracks near me, and the closest drag strip is 80 miles away and only 1/8 mile. I ended paying around $1,000 or so for my new tires (including shipping) and I expect to get 35,000+ at least out of them. I'm hoping to get 40,000+, but we'll see how easy I can keep my foot off the pedal. lol

That's not too bad of a deal, I think if you get the same all seasons without the runflat they are even cheaper. I think I'll end up getting some form of the all seasons once my stock ones fade out.

P.S. your car looks almost identical to mine right now lol (hyper blue with black wheels, vents, & bow-ties)! I'm supposed to be putting on my black front splitter soon, so don't copy me lol.

Nail at 1600 on rear while it was at the dealership. They had to replace it.

Bobfly · 07-11-2016, 09:09 PM

9700 on mine and they're definitely getting thin. That includes 2 nights at the track drag racing with minimal burnouts (5 runs each night).

I had a 5th gen with Pirelli p zeros and only got 15000 miles on the rears. I currently have 3500 miles on my SS and they still look new. Hopefully they will last longer than the pirellis as I don't drive aggressive all that often.

40,000 km

Just had to replace my rears, just about 10,000 miles. One was showing cord.

Cdflyer · 09-08-2017, 08:46 AM

My tears have made it 15K but they need to be replaced. Too many burnouts. My fronts on the other hand look almost new

Interesting thread.........

I had about 17k and 5/32s on the stock GY Asymmetric 3s when I got a puncture on the right rear. I replace both rears with some used GY Asymmetric 2s I got from bestusedtires.com so I could do some drag racing and not have to buy all 4 new tires. They were about $160 total and had about 8/32 on them. If you have one tire that needs to be replaced and looking to defer the tire replacement decision I think this is a good way to go.

23000 miles on mine. Rears are getting very low.

HomeBrewer · 10-11-2017, 08:03 PM

I got a nail in one of my rear tires at about 20k miles. Dealer plugged it, but another leak at about 22k. No one would try a repair, so I got 2 new rears about that time, but they still had a good bit of life in them. I still have my original fronts, 29k miles. They do need to be replaced though. Water channels are gone.

I never have done a burnout, chirped them a few times and on occasion, a silent wiggle if I punch it.
