You tire wear is about right. t

My P-Zeros lasted 11K in the rear. They probably had another 1-2K left but I was anxious to replace them.

My replacement set of Yokohama ES100s only lasted 8K in the rear due to an alignment problem on a cross country trip(including the "DRAGON" leaving knoxville, TN). 8K included 3 track DE days and some very high speed driving.

My second set of rears have 7K and look like they will go 4-5K more.

Fronts last almost twice as long as rears.

If your rears are shot - DON'T drive in the rain. My first indication my rears were gone included hydroplaning 100 miles into a 200 mile rainy trip. It was ugly. If I hadn't had PSM I would have spun on the interstate. EVERYBODY was passing me as I couldn't keep her straight over 55MPH.
