What type of tread life are you able to get from these tires. No tracking on the tires, just highway driving. Thanks for the help

 

I have around 4k on mine. I don't baby it, but I don't auto-x or anything either. I'm pleased with how they look and no feathering on the front that I can see (had them off to do brake work last week so got to inspect them). They have some serious tread to start with. Something like 300 or so I don't remember.

are the very noisy on the highway.

 

I have 15K and two track events (one in semi-rain) on my 555's. Still have plenty of tread.

 

I have about 10k on it and two trips to the dragstrip. Still have lots of thread left.

 

Not any worst than the stockers. I prefer to listen to the Borla and Crawford cats rather than the tires though.

I have 27,000 miles on my front with still about 25% tread left and I replaced the rears with about 24,000 miles on them and I drive the car very hard... I probably could of got another 5000 miles or so on the rears if I would of dismounted them and flipped them before the insides wore from neg camber... BTW, I have 235's in the front and 275's in the back...

 

thanks for the response, and GatorZ, I know what you mean by the borla/crawford mesh! What a great combo. I'm hoping to do the same in the near future.

 

Doesn't that tire combo make it understeer like a ****?

 

Not any more than the 245/275 combo.. Their is more important reasoning why i went with that combo.... the combo is 235/40/18 and 275/35/18... I had the factory 17's, not 18's and stock the 17's have an overall smaller diameter, so instead of going with the 245/40 and 275/40 combo that would of been taller than my stock, I went with my setup to be slightly lower.... Smaller diameter = better acceleration... and the 235/40 and 275/35 has the right front to back difference I needed.....
