What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Rusty · 08-13-2019, 08:06 AM

I get about 10,000 out of my rears. Sometimes a lot less if I do a lot of trackdays.

I'll probably switch to all seasons because summer only tires SUCK in the rain...

Too many times this season I've been caught in sudden downpours from 'pop-up' thunderstorms. The car is squirrelly as hell in that kind of stuff...

I am barely over 12000 km (7500 miles) and i am at my wear bars on the inside and bit over on outside for the rears on oem.

Also put in an order for indy 500s for the rears. Need some burners for end of season and leading into most of next year. Had to opt for a shop that charged 10 bucks more per tire since they are open on Saturday

I feel weird being the only person in here getting 20K out of my tires. I've been running on Conti extreme contacts for street tires. (they're also excellent in the rain)

Zezus · 08-13-2019, 11:35 AM

Actually i got about 20k out of my pilot sport as3+ so this makes sense.

JLarson · 08-13-2019, 01:25 PM

Over 13k on my Michelin P4S, and still decent amount left on the rears. But I don't do much hard launching, and I haven't been to the track, so I'm sure that's a factor.

I get about 35-40k on my Michelin pilot sport a/s 3 rears. Currently 55k+ on the fronts and going strong.

That seems about right. I should have made it clear the ExtremeContact Sports are summer tires and not all season.

The topless look is in this summer.

I have never had a problem. Use it as a practice season for making your inputs smoother.

Contis for life. The summers are excellent, all-season are great, and when I had Conti snows on my 350Z I'd take it out into 4-inch deep fresh powder just to see the awestruck faces of people standing on the interstate shoulder while their "all wheel drive" cuckmobile was getting winched out of the median...
