My sumis lasted a long time and even a few track days. Then I had to retire the fronts after over 30,000 miles and got a set of 225/45/17. The backs are still going strong with 15,000 miles on them. If you thrash them at the track (which would be very fun
) they will likely be much less.
I think a free set of Sumis is a perfect tool for feeling the limit and thrashing at a track
Then when you get the RS-3 you will know more what a tire feels like on the limit and can quickly utilize the extra grip of the RS3.
I am going to a car control school the 27th with Florida Citrus Region and I am taking my sumis so I can explore the limit at a lower speed - I am looking forward to learning a lot. I think you did a similar school and got a lot out of it as well?
