replaced the OEM RE040s at about 5000 miles... that was following two driving events, about 700 miles on the track... the RE040s were completely obliterated

replaced them with TOYO T1S which I used for two more track events... another 700 miles or so on those at the track... didn't like the size I bought for the rear (255/45-18) and decided to replace them with Bridgestone SO2 at about 8000 miles....

the S02s have about 8000 miles, but no track events, and they are holding up nicely... I've switched to Yokohama AO32R on the track, so the street tires only have to deal with Houston's crappy streets and the occasional drive in the hills...

Factory Tires (rears actually because of replacement fronts) replaced with GY Eagles at 20,000 miles. I drive semi-aggresively. Car is daily driver and I had 2 DE events on OEMs.

Aggressive, ran the $hit out of the stock tires, the cords were showing, lol got 20K out of them. Then slammed my car, got 8k out of a rear set of SO3's, then only 4000 out of a rear set of Goddyear Eagle F1 GS D3's. Finally got my camber/toe rods on and aligned so I should get much more out of my tires. Just threw on a set of cheap Yokahoma ES 100's only $370 for the rears...still running the S03's in the front they are wearing really well.

Aggressive, I got about 20k out of them cords showing on the front probably explained why I spun the car driving down a street in the snow

I've got Falken Ziex512's on it now, they're big and fat, 245s all the way around, but softened the stock ride up a bit
