lol, my tires are shot to hell at 7k miles And I really don't mess around with my car much. I do have a tendency to accelerate faster than most people while taking off from a stop light though but nothing too crazy

 

nitto ftl. only Nittos i'd want are NT01's. I've got the KDW2's and theyve been great so far.

 

That wear is not the tire's fault. Your rear toe must be way off, bad toe kills tires faster than bad camber. Your tires have been scrubbing against the road every time they turned. The same thing happened to me once before i bought my camber/toe kit, i went through a brand new set of bridgestones in like 5 months. Look at your rims from above, do they look like they're angled inwards? If so do NOT buy new tires until you fix that.

 

I have the SPC camber kit with toe bolt, why is it still messed up then?

 

Anyone in socal know a good place to get my toe and camber checked out?

 

damn, that's pretty bad/bald.

 

calin you definitely need to go to a reputable shop and get that alignment in spec. it very easily could be the toe that is eating those tires away. at least you have the kit to get it fixed. i'm rolling with some mad negative camber until the end up august when my mom buys me a rear camber kit for my birthday! hahahah.

 

Ya I'm going to get it looked at either wednesday or thursday
haha that's gonna be a sweet birthday present!!

 

Good try Calin!!! I lied last night when I told you I have 22K, I actually have 23K and still plenty of tread left. I see no reason why I shouldn't get at 35K oout of these tires.. I have plenty of rubber left!!!

Do you have coilovers & lowering springs on your Z, & if so did you do an alignment when they were installed???

 

I have the Eibach Sportline springs, and ya I got an alignment after the install. Maybe they didn't do a very good job . I'm gonna go to a shop on wed or thur and see what they recommend. I might just get another alignment to make sure its good

 

I paid extra $$$$ for a lifetime alignment, due to me always making changes to my Z. Good luck & keep us posted, LEAD FOOT.

 

I will

 

little to many burn outs

 

damn and i was thinking about getting these too

 

they are actually worn pretty evenly. looks like someone loves to do burnouts!! haha

 

i got over 45000 miles out of my rear and even more out of my fronts but they did really suck in the rain. almost lost it a few times in the rain.

 

If you read my first post you would know that I didn't burn out with these tires once. I don't track the car either. That was from just normal every day driving

reading FTW!

 

+1 TOYO's FTW

 

Its all in the alignment. Wouldnt blame the tires at all. Make sure to take it to someone that knows what they are doing and get that alignment in spec and youll be alright. Also you prolly will need the rear camber arms and toe bolts to get it exactly were you want it for maximum tire life..

I have had these tire for about 2 full years and they are amazing. Excellent wet and dry traction. Tread wear is great also, except the rears thats because I spin them alot. I would definitely recommend them and when you get them installed also get an alignment.
