Simple question. Also please post your tires:

Mine: Nitto NT555, miles on 1,000 aprox.

Old: Michelin PS2, miles on 18,000 and balled.

Keep the tires properly inflated, rotated and the car aligned as well as avoid spinning and overly hard cornering, and 30,000+ should be very possible.

My first tires which were Bridgestone Potenza RE 0050 lasted 20K for the rear tires---almost bald, while the front tires still have enough threads to go another 8K - 10K miles. My brake wear, are the reverse of my tire wear.

My new Toyo Proxes T1R tires, based on how much I love to drive them, apepars as if the rear tires will last no more than 15K while the front tires my go as far as 20K - 23K (just projecting). These Toyos' are worth ever dime I put in them. I plan to buy new rear tires once a year---I really don't care how long they last as far as they remain good at handling.

Just got my G, still on the org tires with almost 22k miles on them and they just past inspection. The dude that had the car before me was in his 50s so I dont think he took many corners fast or any burnouts.

Just turned 20k on the OEM Michelin PS. Planning on going Toyo after these wear out. Michelin's are nice, but Toyo's are just as nice and cost much less.

Factory Goodyear RSa's lasted 19k miles

I replaced them with Kumho STX's they have 14k miles on them and are holding up great probably will replace them between 45-50 k miles, on the car.

Really... the bigger issue on the coupes is the built-in negative camber. The tires wear on the inside first.

My originals did not last too long. 11k then I bought Falcon 912 and have 15k on them they look pretty good. It should be ok for another 4-5k.

2003 G35 Coupe

Goodyear RSA - 15,000 and probably went a thousand or two too far

Miichelin Pilot A/S- 21,000 the rears wore out in the center just as the Goodyears. The fronts could have gone another 5,000

Mastercraft Avenger- 9,000 onthe car when traded, very noisy 2008 G37 Journey

Dunlop SP Sport Maxx A1 A/S- 8,000 Wear so far is even and at least can rotate these. Still don't expect more than 20,000

well i will tell you one thing... the RE 0050 SUCK

Mine have about 12k on them and they are about shot!

I will be going with the General Exchlaims they have a rating of 380 for a UHP tire... That will get about 40k miles out of them

275 30 19 rear 245 35 19 front
