over 40k? thats real good. i am guessing you took the right measurments to last that long? alignment, camber kit? i have the same tires but my rears definitely needs to be replaced. i put about 18k in the last 2 yrs without getting it aligned an my rears tend to be quite loud at times, but not at highway speeds. next month ill have the funds to get me new tires and this time i will do what is necessary to keep the tires lasting long, alignment an if needed, camber kit...

 

I'm on my 2nd set of UHP's now on my GTO. 245/40-18. First set got 30k out of them and the second set has about 25k on them now. I've been very pleased with them, especially the wet traction.

 

Been a great tire for many of my customers thus far.

 

great on my stock 18's.....tread's nice, too!

 

I've been driving these for about 20k now, feels good, went to AutoX one time with them and they seem to do their job well. I'm taking them to the track next weekend (TX Z Party). I hope they wont scream like those Goodyr Screaming Eagles.........


Overall, for DD, it's really good for the buck!

 

cyc5181, they will scream trust me they did on me. Really loud!

 

Neal,
Slightly OT - what is the latest suggestion for sticky tires with tread rating of 140 or more for time attacks?

 

these seems like a great solution for me!

i never auto X or anything.. just street driving. a little agressive but i think these will do the trick!

beats Michillen ps2 that cost like 560 per tire! and only last like 10-20 k

thanks everyone for the input! but whish they have in 285 for the rear!

 

The first set of generals lasted less than a year because of poor alignment specs. I bought a set of BattleVersion Camber arms and toe bolts to take care of that. The rear tires are on their way out but I'm logged over 40K with the tires I have on the car now.

 

question for those who have experienced with general exclaim uhp- I currently have them on my car put them on yesterday actually (rear tires only) and when changing lanes with street completely dry somewhat faster than normal, or like if you were trying to dodge a pothole or something, i feel them slidding a bit which has never happened to me before with the stocks and some federals i just got rid of, they act kind of like when the road is wet and if you get on it you might slide around a litttle.
Can this be related to alignment, i plan on getting that looked at or is it just that the sidewalls are softer or because i'm running them 255/45/18 with stock rims ?

 

I believe it's the matter of new tires. They need to break-in as well for about 1k miles.

 

Correct. All new tires have a film on them that you need to wear out.

 

No complaints here. They have been ZdayZ tested on the dragon and meet my seal of approval.

 

to my dissapoint ment genrals dont make the sizes i am looking for.. soo

i think im going to go with.. Potenza RE050A Pole Position

any input on these? price isnt so bad and the reviews seem pretty good!

That person is something, and wise isn't it.

 

it seems like with these tire sizes my traction control will be going off the hook? yes or no?

got the info from here

I had RE050A PP for about 19k miles.
They were definitely better in all aspects comaring to OEM RE040.
They are also cheaper comparing to Michelin PS2.
I enjoyed the tires and also highly recommand it.
