I went in for an oil change a month ago and the stealership told me I had a nail in my right rear tire but I refused to get it out as I was on my lunch break. I went back yesterday to patch up the tire and they said my rears are real bald and after I checked them out.. the outside is a lot more worn than inside. My fronts are okay for now. I currently have 15,500.00 miles on my car and I don't auto-x it but I do drive it aggressively sometimes.

What rear tires should I get? I want to get tires that will last me more than 15k miles and I am somewhat on a budget but I don't want to go with something cheapo either.

 

are u ordering them yourself or getting them from the dealer?

 

Wherever I can get them the cheapest, so probably ordering them myself. What tires should I look into?

 

check this poll https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-...tire-poll.html, look at a handful with the most votes, go to tirerack, and find the cheapest of the list.

I would honestly say Kuhmo asx or high performance tire of that brand but my last rear set only lasted 9k miles.

Yea and its obvious not to go through the dealer..the will mark tires up at least 50%

 

Thank you for that link. I want to go with tires that will last longer than 9k, I'm not as concerned with performance as I am with the money in my wallet... lol. I had no idea that tires wear out this quick on a Z!

 

if you are looking for performance/value tires, I suggest the vredestein ssentaras or falken fk452s. you might be able to get away with a different tire too since you're in fl and wet grip might not be a huge concern.

 

usually the inside is worn a little more then the outside due to camber, how did you wear the outsides out more?

 

If only doing the rears I'd stick with same model/type as what's on the front. Will keep handling accurate especially in wet weather.
