one of my rears is still in admirable shape with about 26000 miles on it. the other rear is down to steel!

my two fronts have probably 24500 miles on them and are still strong, though they're being used as rear wheels at present.

don't ask... long story.

I got 24K on the set of OE tires. When I took them off the rears were unevenly worn, but the outer edge still had a little usable tread left. The fronts had about 4/32 and were pretyt even but I changed them as a set. Got Yoko S Drives. Love em.

Thanks for the present, and by the way after I have had them for a week...youre not going to get 2400 miles out of them...

Sorry, it's too easy to peel out with the smaller tires on the back!

16,000 and my fronts are still good but the insides of my rears are down to steel and the outsides still have tread left. Thats from the negative chambers of the 350z s-techs. Vredesteins here i come 275/35/19 for the rears

15,000 on mine and they look to be about half worn....but the fronts are eating the insides from my drop. The rear look really nice, very even

Before I do a new set, I will be doing front camber adjustment add-on

Got my new Vredsteins on at about 17,500, rear insides were down to steel and I blew one of them while I was in Orlando at 2:30am and had to drive home with the spare on the rear lol, didn't change the front and they look like they still got about 55-60% on them

i think it really depends on how you drive but with about 1/2 the treadware of other tires - i dont see them lasting me very long.
