The set of V12s I put on mine when I got it lasted 12k on the rears to just about bald. Replaced rears only with Firehawk Indy. (wayyyy more grip than the V12s) The rears lasted 7500 to 2/32, and they were scary in the rain at 48 mph. The V12s were entertaining, as far as how often I could put the car in a 4 wheel drift and the rears spun up way easier than the firestones.

Put a full set of Indys on it when the rears wore out, feels so much more balanced with the same tires front and rear again.

haha and yeah I just got another set of v12s mounted. I figure I’ll run through 2 sets of rears before the fronts go .
