I've managed to squeeze nearly 25,000 commuter miles out of my OEM Goodyears, but that's only because A) it hardly ever rains in Arizona, and B) I don't have $1,600 just sitting around for new tires.

15k and I couldn't pass inspection. I don't track, race or burnout. I went with Firestone tires from tirerack.com. Paid only $850 for complete set installed.

Hello fellow Knoxvillian. Those twisty East TN roads make this car so much more fun!

Whats the difference in handling with the new setup?

For anyone on a budget, there are always take-offs for sale in the classified section for 5 - 6 hundred bucks. If you're not in a hurry, I'll bet you could find a set locally. I picked up some tires for 500 and a set of factory split spokes with great oem tires for 800

None I can tell, a little quieter because I did not want run flats.

Ain't that the truth!

I picked up a used 2017 couple months back and right away checked every tire all across the tread and had 6/32" all around The car had 13k and i thought they were originals But now i question that. How close a match are the build dates on your tires my fronts are weeks 28&29 - 2016 Rears are both 41 2016 Now I think the rears have been changed

Not really noticeable when cornering as far as a I can tell, although I never have really pushed it to a limit.

The ride feels smoother and less bumpy, and for whatever reason I get less rock chips/road debris coming up.

That's really amazing, due to the heat they must be exposed to.

I got 16500 on mine before going to continentals DW06 tires any longer as a daily driver would be dangerous. I drive spritely. The DW06 in my opinion handle great. I now have 22500 and they still look brand new.
