Default Tire LIfe

Any one can tell me how much I can expect the stock tires to last, I got like 8k on them and they look brand new but I hate them, I want Pilot sports.........

I guess we are in the same boat. These stockers suck.

They will last even longer if you keep them properly inflated and rotate them every 5K miles. Hmmm.... Maybe you should be practicing doing donuts and burnouts until the tires pop. lol!

Dude, if you want to get something else, get something else.

Which O.E. tires are you running - the Bridgestone's, the Yokohama's, or the Pirelli's?
