I had perlie PZero Nero MS and they have only lasted me about 18K miles which is just not cool. Granted I drive hard i'm starting to get my driveing under control. How long do everyones tires last on average ? and what tire do you have name and profile.

I drive my car pretty aggressively. My stock ones lasted over 30,000 miles. My Nittos lasted another 30,000. My Yokohama AVS ES100 would of lasted longer, but I ran them on Buttonwillow Raceway and melted them in a day. I also had bad rear camber before I added my Hotchkis rear camber links. My Kumhos 711 are still brand new.

It depends on the wear rating -- but, those ratings are totally arbitary and only relevant to other tires made by that manufacturer.

Note that the grippier the tire, the faster they wear down. Traction is partially due to the tire disintegrating as it sticks to the road.

I heard that if you drive cautiously, your tires can last up to around 60,000 miles. I wore out my tires on my last car after 30,000 miles. Guess I took the turns too aggressively?

when i bought my car it have goodyear eagle rsa's and they lasted about 50k i then got the perelli p-zero nero m+s's and they didnt last me longer then 2 years, about 30k tops, if i could go back in time i would of bought the goodyears again, 50k and i never had a problem w/ handling, they were like the post office rain, sleet, hail, snow, AC prostitutes, 3 legged cows, and the occasional poor person at pat's/geno's at 4am trying to clean my windshield, it ran them all over no problem
