How long will the stock tires last?

My Yoko's gave it up @ 21,500 miles. Replaced them with the Continental Extremes...HUGE difference in the noise level compared to Yoko's. I'll never go back.

the yoko although louder is a MMMUUUUCCCHHHH better tire. put 10k miles on those extremes and then come back to this thread.

Ya just can't say that and leave us hanging...why are the Yokos better and what happened to cause you to switch? Give it up.....

Mine lasted around 12,000, but popped each of the front tires. They perform great, but IMO are pretty fragile. Switched to Michelin Pilot Sport PS-2s last summer which I will go with again.

I see you're from the Denver Area. I purchased my red 2010 Nismo from Go Now Nissan in the Denver suburb and they had a black one there. Is that where you bought your Nismo?

Yep, that is where I purchased and get mine serviced. They have turned out to be a pretty solid dealer. I think their full name is Go Nissan Arapahoe (on Arapahoe road). They are about 2 miles away so it is convenient too!

I have Hankooks on the rear right now, but the Yoko's are pretty awesome in terms of grip. I noticed a considerable difference when I switched as well. Going to switch back once I get back to the states. Maybe go with 305s in the rear as well........
