Old front left tire:
Note outer edges, even on the tread, is more worn. This is after I adjusted my driving to wear the tires less. Heat stress is also VERY evident.

I sponsor the forums, but I'm not sponsored myself in any way shape or form. I pay for everything myself.

@Henry: I'll be doing some spirited cruises, but nothing serious until the track day I'll give you a call when we get something scheduled.

They're Potenza RE070 215/45/17 255/40/17.

Treadwear is 140 (bit overrated? RE050/RE050A/RE050APP will outlast these no problem)
