Thumbs up How long do your tires last?

I run a 245/50R16 Cooper Zeon 2xs (Best rain tire ever made IMO), and I get 10k miles out of a set of rears before they're at the wear bars. I run a 205/55/R16 of the same tire up front, and I'll get 1 set of front tires to every 3 sets of rears.

What's everyone else running and how long do they last? How are they in the rain?

Running RE050s on the Ap2.. 20k+ on the first set of fronts.. replaced the rears around 18k... Definitely last a lot longer than the S02s I had on my Ap1... S02s lasted under 10k in the rear, and nearly 17 or 18k in the front.

^^ dam I was using S03's on my MY00. Easily got 30K on the rears.

My AP2 (re050) is at 17.5K and looking good for 30.

my stock rears lasted me 25k.and the only reason i had to replace them was because one of the rears started to seperate in the inner wall(bad alignment after lowering the car)I think i would've gotten over 30k if it didn't sepreate.
