30,000km (18,641mi) and my tires unroadworthy.

[*MAD DOG*]

Wtf? I've rotated my wheels every 10,000km and now my front two tyres are unroadworthy/bald enough after 30,000km. Just wondering did anyone else chew through there tires this fast? I don't burn rubber and drive an automatic. Really dissapointed in the life I got out of these tires. Had them for just 2 years!

yeh mate i am on my 3rd set after at 40,000 my first lasted about 28,000 the second were some cheap crap no brand and now i have a set of - Bridgestone POTENZA Adrenalins real nice tires i $117 each very sticky i will never buy cheap tires again

I changed my tires at 15k miles. If you got 30k then you are lucky. They only have a 200 treadwear. Most you will ever get out of a 200 treadwear high performance tire is about 30k miles.

dam you guys must use soft compond tyres :eek:
i just replaced the Dunlops that came with my Yaris 48KM
on them and about 1/3 of the tread left .

2 years sounds good to me; I wore out my front tires in 6 months. No burnouts or anything like that, just lots of mountain driving.

I changed my first set of tires a month ago. I had them just under 2 years BUT, I had 70,000 KMS on them. :) I got my mileage out of them! :biggrin: (mostly freeway cruising for me in case one wonders why it is so high)

30k on OE tires isnt too bad....there IS a reason they throw them in on your economy car...

[GeneralDon7]

I got 56,000 miles out of mine before they were at the 1/8th inch mark. I did the occasional burnout, but never that often, and i do take turns pretty fast.

^^ you dropped those

Anyway, I'm averaging 1 year and 25,000 miles per set of tires. Buy from discount tire and you get the rest of the tread mileage guarantee prorated on to your next tires. I got my current tires at about half off since they lasted 25,000 miles out of the 60,000 warranty. Plus they do free rotating and balancing. I found my tires last a lot longer if I balance as well as rotate every 5k instead of just rotating.

I have nokian tires... they are quiet and last a long time.

I got 35,000kms on my car and my tyres still have atleast 3mm worth of tread to the indicator (stock wheels with dunlops for daily, rims on for cruises/events). Car is lowered on coilovers and no major wear on the front tyres yet. Havent even taken the car for wheel alignment ever since i've had it the car. I guess it depends on how hard you drive around corners.
