Tire death - Page 2

Glad I am not part of the 'Better than Thou' club.
Some very arrogant people own 1LEs.

305/30/20 square is not a stock spec. Or is it only 1LE owners who are allowed to run different sizes?

Why not make the 1LE forum a closed one and users have to ask your permission to post. Sounds like that is what you want your Highness.

I just took a quick look back at a bunch of your posts, if anything it seems like you are the arrogant one. With some condescending tossed in as well...

I suppose this is one instance when I can see why a thread was moved as it's not really about anything 1LE, since we aren't talking about the OEM g3.

...but tire wear and such would def be different on a 1le just do to all the different suspension parts and the fact we have a different alignment as well.

Regardless, there was zero need for Bradford's response. It's not our fault he lives in Canada.

almost like a truck tire retread.

look at it this way, no one will question that you drive the ish out of your car

Yes, you do have to read into a thread to see where it fits. This one could also go in the track section too. It is subjective and we all have our opinions.
My opinion is this guy needs new tires..

You are correct, however I did not see many complaints on stock GY (SS or 1LE) getting shredded at at the track.
Must be a hell of a driver

I never felt like anyone (1LE owner) is looking down on the other car owners (SS or whatever). Just because someone felt like this should belong to 1LE sub section doesn't automatically mean he/she's being an arrogant. It's just an opinion, we either agree or disagree. This childish behavior is not the first time I am hearing from this member, oh well.

Back to topic, it seems like those tires are way overheated especially since the tire wear is on the inner side which means not caused by the lack of the camber (it's typically the opposite side). To the OP, have you been doing cool down laps and monitoring your hot pressures? IMHO, Cup 2 is another tire that is not a good fit to our cars.
If it has to be on the OEM wheels, I think the best offerings (for hybrid use) is either OEMs or RE71Rs at this point.

I'm going to guess that those PSS tires didn't see very many street miles before being tracked. For durability they seem to like a bit of breaking-in mileage first.

My guess is running 305 tire on 10 wheel has something to do with the wear.

Norm Peterson · 06-01-2017, 09:31 AM

And static toe-out, some extra negative camber, and an abrasive track surface.
