G35S or Journey with 18 inch wheels question
I am looking ta a journey that has the 18 inch wheel and tire package on it. My understanding is these are Potenza "summer" tires and I suspect they will wear quickly. Can anyone give me insight as to the average lifespan of those tires? I also see that the front and rear sizes are different, thus rotating them is out, so I gather even when I replace them what ever i put on will wear through front tires faster.... thoughts?

When I do have to replace them, I may opt for the Goodyear F1 Eagles that are available from the Tire Rack. These are All Season tires, and should last from 30 - 40K miles.
Maybe that's wishful thinking, but on my last car (2004 Acura TL) I had Michelin Pilot A/S which last for over 40K miles. By some chance if Michelin starts making the Pilot A/S' in 225/50-18 and 245/45-18 I would buy them without even thinking about it.

One track day was included, which undoubtedly dropped me below 10k miles.

basically it just depends on how you drive. if you drive like you stole the car...your tires will need to be changed at around 10-12k....if you don't drive the car hard like everyday, and maybe once in a blue moon...you might get 25k outta the tires. Take the corners slow (i know its hard to cuz its so much fun) and you will save lots of tread...also no peeling out, doughnuts, etc...and you should get plenty of miles out of your tires. goodluck.
