I just replaced mine at 16,000 miles, just the rears. they were getting down to the wear indicators and It got a little squirley on me. I ordered the tires that night.

Fronts still look good. I'd guess maybe replace the fronts about every 2nd set of rears...

If your tires go under-inflated or over inflated, you'll see increased wear. Don't use the gas station gauges as they are often wrong, get yourself a good digital gauge and keep it in the glove compartment. Even if you use a good air compressor with a gauge, check it with the digital gauge. And follow the recommendations for hot-cold, it makes a huge difference unless you're using nitrous fills.
I always checked the air with a digital handheld gauge that is accurate. And did what the manufacture said, 36psi cold. The TPMS also reflect that.

Those General G-MAX AS-03 tires look pretty good, 480 tread wear, 10/32. I was looking at the BFGoodrich G-Force COMP-2 A/S, 400 tread wear, 9/32.
Anyone here have the General G-MAX AS-03 tires on their car ?
I don't need a soft tire. With the roads and heat here in Florida, I think I need a harder tire. Don't want to drive the car like a grandma lol

I burned through my first rears in 8,000 miles. Fronts lasted around 38,000. Big dif when you're not smokin' 'em down. Since then I'm getting 25 to 30 outta the rears and keeping the burn outs down to scratch offs.

With a v6 I made it to just over 24,000 on the rear. I might could have got 2-3000 more on the front, but just replaced as a set.

Mine will last me forever, they're sitting in the garage stacked up in a corner, won't go back on the car until I am ready to sell it. Then they will be someone else's problem.

I had about 48,000 Mile on the Pirelli's, but the y where seriously wore out.

I've got Nitto's on it now, and about 78,000 on the car and need to get a Set again.

About 25K miles. On my second set.

Damned snow tires are still good after 4 years though.

The tires were brand new when I bought the car in December of 2013. Recently replaced the front tires with close to 30,000 on them. Will need to replace the rears in the next couple months.
