Thanks guys for your help. I haven't done any donuts "persay". A couple times I made U-turns in the middle of the street, like...in-the-middle of the street, so that probably didnt help. So ya thanks guys

It's not the driving style that causes the premature wear. Aggressive driving doesn't help, but this is happening to all the Coupe owners, even the conservative ones.

I made it 46000 Miles on my stock michelen sports. I only did peel outs and donuts one day for about 15 minutes. i was very pleased with the wear i got out of my tires.

dubs

i slapped on dubs on my g coupe and the negative camber just increased. i had to replace my 18 inch stockers because the inside was unevenly wearing because of the camber, so i just decided to slap some d's on it. does anyone else have the same camber issues when puttin on different size wheels? and if so, any solutions?

If that's lucky than I must be a God because I'm at 29k with at least 15k more of life.
