Tire Life

[dirk989]

I've put 14,000 miles on my 04. I don't do a lot of things that would abuse the tires. However, they are looking pretty worn.

I was wondering how many miles others get on these tires.

It seems some folks get near 20,000, but with any high performance tire this is around the norm with the lower tread rating. So if you need tires by 16-18K that would not be unusual, and can reflect the type of driving you do, pavement type , etc.

I got about 20,000 miles on my previous Viper Pilot Sports, but the non-runflats. That included numerous trips down the drag strip, several autocrosses, and a light weekend at a road course. 14,000 on a "light use" car seems like it may be a little early, but the tire is a somewhat different design.

15,000 and the rear tires were SHOT. I mean NO tread left except along the outer edges. Bald as a babies butt in the middle! Fronts still going strong at 20,000.

The new Bridgestones in the back have been on for 1000 miles or so and I could swear I already see a lot of tread gone.

Maybe it's my driving style?

My fronts were corded at 9K, backs still had a little left.

Tire life is around 20,000 miles. I have 35,000 miles on my SRT and I am sure by the next 5,000 miles I will be looking for my next full set.

15,552 with about 2-3/32 left....

I usually go through two sets of rears to every set of fronts. 10k for rears, 20k for fronts.

I had the oringals on my RT/10 for 21,000 miles. However, for the about the last two thousand miles before I changed them, the ride was really rough.

20K seems to be the norm on an SRT-10 with run flats. The rears will go first, a bit sooner than 20k and the fronts may go longer. As stated above, it really depends on how you drive the car.
