Tire wear on type S

Jay Gans · Feb 25, 2002

If I drive sanely, what kind of wear will I get from EOM mxm4 Michelin Tires. On my old Legend Coupe , I got about 50K on Michelin that were on car before. 205/60 /15 touring types, forgot model?

probably only around 30k

i have 25k+ right now, and I have needed new tires for over a month now...but that is b/c my alignment when i got my springs put on wasn't done correctly

I only got 18k out of mine.

HOWEVER - that was with almost 10 autocrosses.

Out here in the desert if you drive sanely you can prob get 40K out of these tires, The way I drive prob gone in about 10K, But being up in Ct (I used to live on the border of Greenwich & Rye Brook) I would change them when they are 70% worn maybe, becuase of the slippery roads during summer rains and same with all the shit that falls in winter. Just nice to know you have a little more traction on the road.

Also I woudl look into maybe Getting Dunlop Sport 5000s, because they will be great for that winter weather, Had them on my cars, and they arew awesome Dry and Wet traction, You could possibly sell the Stock tires really quickly and at least get something out of them.

I got 33,000 on my stock tires. The front ones are bald and need replacment ASAP. The rear ones have another 7500 miles in them.

Do you rotate your tires regularly? this shouldn't happen if you did? :dunno:

btw - welcome!

Yes and no - I didnt rotate them the first time and thats why they are off a rotation.

Thanks - Ken just told me about this place. I was wondering were everyone went.
