even on a normal car with smooth driving, I really have not gone close to 30,000km w/o a tire change. I guess my next tires are BFG Gforce sports!

Gforce Sports are NOT a summer tire. They are a 320 treadwear all season, regardless of how they may be positioned for sale by the various tire supply chains. Again, if you want the best of both worlds and can afford two sets of wheels and tires, the sports make a decent all around daily driver tire, but they are not even close to the advans or star specs in terms of grip.

I like these tires a lot. I have been running them for awhile now. They grip the Road like the yoko OEM tires and feel a lot smoother as well. I think these are going to last me longer then the OEM tires too.
