Lucky bastages..... My rear OEM 17' RS-A lasted me only 11,316. Center wear was extreme and had to be replaced.

I replaced it with PS a/s

Pilot sports? What are those.... Oh yeah those are those wastes of tires (ok just kidding theyre great tires, but they wear WAY to fast) went out at about 18K, rode em till 20-22. Road noise was like a blender... Had a lil beltage exposed on my rears when I replaced them and... get this... I was dumb enough to try to drive in the snow with em @ 19K miles. God that was fun... Especially the rolling down a hill backwards part.

MillersG just sold me his wheels, with Pilot Sports and 25K on them. They were thread bare. I have a pic, but he may not appreciate me posting it

Dudes...PLEASE....from someone who made the mistake of trying to stretch another 1k miles out of worn out rear tires, for the love of god don't do it. A little rain and a very too little too much application of the happy pedal and this WILL eventually happen to you!



Luckily I got away with that one with no more than some bruised pride a lot of cleaning and a trip straight to the tire store! Encouraging to think our G will get 20k+ out of tires, Rears on an S are gone at 10k max

I'm getting close to 10K and mine are already bald, lower than the wear mark. I'm changing them on Monday.

Tires are cheaper than life.... why risk it for a few thousand more miles on the tires? or worst risk distroying the G in a blowout....

I have 22K on my stock tires and they look like yours. I can probably drive it for another 6 months without any problems. I only floor it when I'm already on the highway, that's probably the reason why they've lasted this long.
