But they got rotated every oil change.
Is the tread still decent on them? LIke would most people continue driving on them?

I was surprised my Yokohama AVS dB went 30K as I thought they would be done by 20K.

I guess if I go big /wheels brakes on one G50, I'll have the other on the XGTH longer than I expected.

truly a mystery. I have no idea why Adam seems to eat his up too...or me with the stupid hard Kellys...god I hate those tires...think I'm gonna get some Yoko avids being they make a close to stock size in them for a good price on the bird.

the Falkens rock though...they've got pretty good wear for the grip the provide.
