Its time for rear tires
I have 10k on the rear Pirellis and i'm at 3/32. I was hoping to get a bit more out of them but that wasn't the case. Always kept them at the recommended 36psi cold. Anyway, here are the 2 tires I'm looking at.
The General G-MAX AS-03 tires, 480 tread wear, 10/32. And the BFGoodrich G-Force COMP-2 A/S, 400 tread wear, 9/32. I'm since the Pirellis are 220 tread wear, I am hoping that something over 400 will get longer life. I don't need a real sticky tire. Its my daily driver and I don't race or track the car.

What's your power level? Personally, I am not a fan of either tire.

I see the Nitto Motivo has 560 tread wear, add that one to the mix too.

I have the motivo... For an everyday driver the tire is fine... but if you want to just have a little fun on the weekends... its hard great for burnouts, but if you are pushing a yellow light turning right well... lets just say I took the turn sideways.

I've had the GMax. Worked great up here in northern Oklahoma weather year round. Just now replaced the rear with the BFGoodrich Sport Comp 2 Friday. Time will tell how they do.
I'm not a fan of the sport comps look so far. The only thing I have to judge at the moment.

You will be a huge fan of the BFG's when it rains.

Of the two listed I'd pick the BFG.

But those BFGs are soooo hard to get...305/35/20 are on nationwide backorder until like October - the 285/35 is steadily going that way too. Unless anyone has some insider info to share?

I ended up getting the BFG tires. Even though the Generals have a higher tread-wear rating, I read alot of reviews that said they have a very thin sidewall. Hopefully the BFG tires will last longer than the stock Perelli tires. Thanks everyone for your opinions
