Tire Wear

hhmm........ from the posts... i feel like im the uber lucky one... still have the stock potenza..35k miles....6/32 on life... changing mines at 40 :) ... and believe me, i drive average, sumtimes hard, sum normal. and it is my daily driver. 40 miles a day to work. 5 days a week.

mines the 07 version !!!
 
I'm at just under 23K on my car, and I'm about to put on my 3rd set of summer tires...For the first 3-4 months I owned the car (I bought it just after X-mas 2007) it was wearing winter rubber. The OEM Potenzas lasted about 9k miles, and so did the Kumho XSs that I'm replacing now.

I'm pretty hard on tires, I guess (dunno), though I should note that I do track the car from time to time and have been known to participate in the occasional autocross. ;)
 
This is the third car i have that came with Potenzas. The most i was able to squeeze out of 'em is 20k, with proper every 5k rotation. And that is with mostly freeway driving, and only once every other week canyon runs - no track.
