The Official OEM Potenza life thread.
 
So, I was able to squeeze 20,000 Miles out of the stock potenzas on my car. Was just curious to see how others were faring with their tirelife. Kinda lousy tread life if you ask me.

Was that 20,000 km or 20,000,000 miles?

20,000 miles is about all you can expect from a 140TW tire. If you want longer tread life go up to a 300TW tire and sacrifice a little grip.

wow I have seen many people say they got about 9k out of them. I am hoping they will last me til I get my wheels

cant vote til my tires are shot but i have 5600 on the odo and the tires still look brand new. I drive pretty aggressively too. Hopefully they'll last me 20k as well.

Changed rears today, 8800 miles

NismoZ_840 02-05-2010 11:09 PM

13-14k but an out of spec alignment corded the inside shoulder of the rear tires. Just had a few autocross runs and the rest were DD miles.

RCZ 02-06-2010 11:25 AM

My rears were almost done at 8k miles.

bluestyle55 02-07-2010 10:56 AM

I have 9k and a little less than 50% left on rears.

AutoX Z 02-07-2010 09:05 PM

13k and my rears are dead, like almost completely smooth dead. Front's look pretty good though.

batualla71 02-07-2010 09:33 PM

I have 6500K and one of my front tires just blew on the road. I couldn't find exact same tire, so I replaced both with same Potenza 50A but 94Y. I steel got my other good 94W if enyone interested let me know.

I have just a little over 10k miles on my car and my rears are done. Down into the wear bars and everything. POS Bridgestones.
