Default stock tires bald already...

im at about 10,500 miles and both rear tires are bald....my pressure light came on and the both rear were low one was lower then the other i believe 23lbs i took it to the tire shop and there was a hole in it...he plugged it but recommended me buying 2 new rear tires...i really wanted to wait and upgrade and get 19s...but i guess i can buy 2 rear 18s and use them as the winter tires/rims...but is that normal for the rears to be bald that fast? i know we cant rotate our tires b/c the different size in the front...

Yep, normal. Mine did the same thing... with a little bit of help from me of course Buy a used set from the sale section if you don't want to pay retail for some tires you might not use long. I did. $225 shipped for a set with 1k miles on em.

Some members must replace tires at 5,000 miles, others 30,000 miles. Depends on several factors including driving habits.
