From experience and in the years we have owned this forum, we have never heard of such a thing. Now anything is possible but guys who 50K MILES seem to be ecstatic.
I have had past customers tell me about 15K or less.
Hey, it that did happen, you should have sent those old tires off for some testing.
Peace and Merry Christmas. |
Yeah, I find it hard to believe one could get 50K miles out of any of the Pilot Sport tires on the back of the Boxster as well. I got 15K miles out of the Pilot Sport Ribs and 15K miles out of the Pilot Sport 2 on mine. Now if somone is running an all season tire with a 400+ UTQG wear rating then sure. Ok, I just did a quick search on Tire Rack and Michelin makes an all season "Pilot Sport A/S" with a rock hard 500 UTQG rating. My guess is the OP has these tires.
