Stock Tire Wear - SS runflats

Lhughes · 08-13-2016, 03:14 PM

So I was curious and hopefully some of us do not spin tires every time we drive car or this question is might be moot . I have about 3k miles on tires and just looked at tear tire depth on tread, center is not same as sides in depth and they are always correctly inflated.

Has anyone had to replace worn out stock Eagles yet? If so how many miles did you get?

7800 miles and I just ordered new shoes.

I find myself at the track a lot, so I don't think this is a fair data point.

I have done one small burn out at the track, besides that I have spun a few times during 0-60 runs.
I have 8k miles and there is still a good amount of tread but I did think I'd get more miles out of them before they looked like this.

Are you tires wearing more in the middle of the tire? How about the fronts?

Run-Flats inherently wear quicker either way you slice it. Why they decided to put them on the Camaro boils down to two reasons they love supporting the petroleum industry and they wanted to screw with us just a little bit more.

Rear only, and they just seem to be wearing in center more than sides

I've got 5500 miles on my tires right now, but with 42 autocross runs. Autocross really tears up the fronts. I will probably get 8k miles out of the fronts and 10-12k out of the rears. Our local autocross doesn't do drag style starts, so I don't get as much wear in the rears. Next season I will do a race alignment for more negative camber since I am actually wearing a lot on the outside of the front tires. I will also get some dedicated autocross wheels and tires.

I actually think I'm going to stick with the stock Goodyears for summer tires for a while. They are bad in the cold and pricey, but I will also get a set of winters for November-March.

5 track events and 9300 miles.
About 40 % tread left

bbrown450 · 08-15-2016, 10:25 AM

13,500 and have about 35% left daily driver

JKLNHYD · 08-15-2016, 02:14 PM

Little over 10K miles and I have over 50% left. I think I do my fair share of quick takeoffs but have only done three or four smoky burnouts...

Check your pressures...Heavier center wear usually indicated overinflation

Inflation is not the issue! They are to spec all the time, as stated in first post.

I have heard life on rears are 14-15k miles. So that seems to be the case.

Thanks for feedback..
