oem rims, oem suspension ATM on michelin energy MXV4's about 35k on them and they are just barely over halfway....
i have 5 matching tires and i rotate them every 3k-4k
i will be replacing them with 19" michelin pilot sport as plus, SAGE RCA's, megan coilovers, and a few other things and hope to get 25k-35k out of them
keep that rubber vertical or forever pay the price!
i know....with the costs of the tires it will suck if they start wearing lol
though the tires i was GONNA mount,the michelin pilot sport ps2 were even higher and i cant see spending that kind of $ on ONLY getting 12k-20k on them
just got new front tires(dunlap) that only last about 2months i would say i put about 5-7k its only bald on the inner tire but the rest of the tire is about 75% ?
I had hankook K106's for 70k with 5/32 left and I only rotated them once
im DEF calling shenanigans........your saying you ran 70K on a tire with ONLY one rotation that's got a UTQG rating of 340 (essentially that rating means, assuming you keep them rotated/tires properly inflated/car aligned they should last you 40,000) but you only did one rotation and have got 70k on them with a little bit left?
SHENANIGANS SIR

even on stock suspension they wouldn't last like that, especially not on one rotation....
He's a troll. Lol. Not even with the top dollar tires you can do that. The point of rotating the tires is to get them to wear evenly.
Im sure Brian knows lol. Hes the one with the Michellins.

i know john, no WAY u getting that mileage, especially not with ONE rotation on those cheap *** tires.
i rotate mine EVERY 3k (since the tire shop i bought them from are on the street next to my work) and i have 35k on my michelins and they are at halfway but i literally check my tire pressure once a week, im on nitrogen,rotate every 3k and i do alignment atleast 1-2 times a year and still probably will not see 70k out of those tires
i love michelins BTW thought john, costy yes but typically quieter and a better tire than anyone else.....i mean this is what keeps your car "planted" to the ground no reason to cheap out on this one even my 19's im getting for my rays are michelins.
cuz i keep putting it off
