They will be on my Z in another 2K miles or so when the Yokohama's give up the ghost.
I will end up getting about 17,000 miles out of the RE05A's and could probably go more if I wanted to be out of my comfort zone. I fully expect to get at least that out of the PSS's -- probalby much more.

Tires are a funny thing. Regardless of the specs and test results, I have found people go with what they know, by and large. If BF Goodrich made something beside the G-Force for the 370Z, I would probably go with that brand. I have had nothing but good results from Goodrich on many vehicles, Z's included (old school Z's).
