I may be wrong but have been told some factory tire are cut shorter or molded shorter so Nissan can buy them more cheaply.

Just an FYI.

that is true, you can find both versions on tirerack

Kid4Now - Definitely it's a Sport. There is no secret, except that I used to track my cars 3-4 weekends a year, maybe I drive smoothly, but I actually did read a post from someone who got 40k and called it a world record.
EWG35 & snowcross - no, The RE050A has treadwear 140, there may be a runflat with a different number, but who cares? the only RE050 in Sport OE sizes has treadwear 140

I just put a set of Goodyear Eagle F-1 AS on my G35 Sport last week. I opted for the all season to try and get a little more life out of the tire. So far so good, but only time will tell.

two words = TIRE INSURANCE

I paid 500 bucks at the dealer when I leased my car and all tires and rims are covered for the full 3 yr/45k of the lease. Well worth it IMHO, and I Read the fine print and it says the tires are even covered if they need to be replaced due to routine wear. Just a little FYI, my friend has a similar plan on his 335i with sport and he has gotten 3 new rims and about 6 or 7 tires and it has cost him just the 500 bucks he paid when he leased his car.
