Burnouts? Aggressive driving? 6k is a really low number to burn through tires.

Track time can EAT tires. Soft compound tires + 3900 pound cars = lots of little black balls on the side of the road/track surface. You have to pay to play.

There is a dealership here in Des Moines that offers tires for life...you may want to look into a deal like that.

Karl Chevrolet in Iowa...I do not know the details...just hear/see the ads.

Wait...cancel that: It is a $1000 buy in...BUT "excludes fleet vehicles and performance cars with different sized front and rear tires"
