I'm curious how long these stock tires on my RA are gonna last. I've read plenty of bad reviews on the tires in magazines and I know from experience that they are pretty crappy. I want to get new tires but I'm cheap and I like to buy things only when what I already have doesn't work anymore. I just want to know how many miles I can expect to get out of these Goodyears.
BTW, I only drive a little harder than the average driver, so I'm not putting extreme wear on my tires.

i have almost 9000 miles on my tires, i've only rotated them once. One or two more rotations and they will be shot..
Luckily i'm taking the car off the road for the winter, so i don't have to worry about winter tires.
And i drive a litter harder than the little harder than average driver. Turns eat tires.
P.S. My car came with the RSA's..some came with potenzas which should last a little longer.

just learn to drift and they will be done after a few weeks! you will learn a fun new skill and get to justify buying new rubbers! gotta love the american way
but if ur would barely beat my grandmother off the line, you may be waiting a few years before you need to replace them. But, you could always justify geting some better allseasons to protect your investment durring Ohio's ugly winters.

i have 9500 miles on my RSA's and they are below 2/32.......they are shot. I did 3 autocross events and 1 driving school. Oh yeah.....and I drive hard all the time. it all depends on your driving habits.......and I don't do burnouts. good luck

Well I've got 13,000 miles and I've only had my car since February. Trips to philly are killing me on milage. I'm thinking I'm gonna have to buy new ones by the end of winter.

Yes, I like to drive.
hm.. 3 months 6500 miles... rotated once.. back tires <old fronts> are at about 40% and the fronts at about 70% and dropping... I drive a lot.. and it's hilly here. Taking hills at 50-60 mph is horrible for treads, and also i like to take turns hard, and weave through traffic... but yea hopefully i'll get some Yokohama A Spec 2's sometime soon...
