14 k miles and the rears are almost done, fronts are about half worn out. It seems like the v6 guys are getting more life out of their tires from reading this thread

justjoshin · 12-28-2014, 09:04 AM

Replaced mine at 27k with General G-Max. I like the look and life of the G-Max but they have gotten pretty loud over time. I think I will try something else next time, maybe the Continentals...

Wizzer · 12-28-2014, 11:24 AM

did 2 tire changes already. Fronts go anywhere from 25k-30k

rears from 20k-25k depending on how aggressive you drive. Pure highway on the car will get you more mileage on the tires but around town is mostly what my car gets. I also live in a southern state with hot weather a good part of the year.

Hope this helps.

I have 48K on them. But they're about to go out. I've got an appointment Monday to get them replaced.

TheSmokingSuns · 01-02-2015, 02:26 AM

My stock P-Zeros lasted 50k miles. Replaced with new P-Zeros at around 50k miles and now I'm at 82k miles with plenty of tread left.

Silent... · 01-03-2015, 02:37 PM

3 of Mine probably have a little bit left on them at about 27k on them but I picked up a screw in the right rear, middle of the tread, and that one is down the the wear indicators in the middle. Instead of replacing just the one, I'm going for an entire set because the middles of all 4 tires are wearing out faster than the outer. I've kept them at the proper PSI consistently, since I have a compressor in the garage, and the car is garage kept. No cupping or unusual wear other than the middles wearing out faster. The Florida heat seems to wear on them more than in other places as the tires heat up.

I only got 29k and I don't drive hard. My 2LT/RS did much better with the same tires.

48K is outstanding, especially on an SS.

Rcfiddy1 · 01-03-2015, 10:46 PM

I got 20k out of first set. Lucky I picked up take off rims and tires new for 600 bucks and got another 20k out of them. Now I am on all season Gmaxx Generals.

Seems pretty obvious the 6's are getting excellent distance out of them - I am at 37K KM and they look very healthy.

So I'm beginning to see. I laughed when one of the tire shops I called said I must hold some kind of record for how long my P-Zero's lasted, je je.

hunt5588 · 01-07-2015, 05:10 PM

I have heard anywhere from 20-30k

If any of you guys need to replace those Pirellis let me know, I have a set of new ones I won't be using

1KillerSS · 01-07-2015, 06:10 PM

My first set started going bald at 15k miles I milked them until about 25k. The roads in south Florida are more abrasive and I drove the car a lot harder when I first got it. I've got 51k miles on the car now and i am on my second set, the car has been up north since about 34k miles. I don't do burnouts anymore and the smoother roads have helped a lot. I could go another 10k miles on them easy. Their just under half tread life....judging by looks anyway. Too bad the turbos will be on the car soon and the plan is to blow them off the car so I can install rims and tires! I went wider and with DR's. I seriously doubt I'll get any longevity with that setup

PcKiller · 01-08-2015, 09:49 PM

I have now around 23,000 miles, and they still have a lot of meant on the bone. Ithink I can get another 23,000 miles yet.
