My fronts were wearing evenly with my rears while running SO2s. I push my car pretty hard. How many 4 wheel slides have you been in?

Correct!

I have yet to prove that to myself though.

I've got about 3K miles on the S-03s and they're looking pretty good so far.

My rear S-02s were down to the wear bars after 7500mi, the fronts weren't too bad. Those fronts are now on our Volvo. I'll have to take a pic of that. It's something you don't see every day!
