I really like my PS2's performance, good and sticky, much better than the Falkens I use as my winter tires. But I think when I finally wear out the front PS2 tires, I will need to put on a cheaper set. It really seems like as soon as I put a set of rear tires on, they seem to start to wear away before my eyes. Its almost like if I take a fast sweeping onramp, I could look behind me a see a trail of my nice sticky tires on the road ( I dont, it just seems that way from how they wear.)
I got about 5K out of my first set of rear PS2's. I chalked up the low miles to me learning about what the limits of traction were with the tires. I now have a little over 2k on my second set of rears and I have been behaving myself with hopes of doubling that milage with the second set, no way, even with only 2K on them you can see the wear.
Its interesting to me how much the rears wear compared to the front tires. It looks like the front tires with 7K on them sare showing less wear than the rears with 2K. I thought I would have to go through two sets of rears until the fronts were gone, but it looks like it will be 3 sets of rears to one set of fronts. BTW, I'm pretty sure my alligment and tire pressure are setup properly, interesting cars, these Boxsters.
