I get 10-11K out of my PS2's(rear). That's is the only tire I will use. I will go through 2 pairs of rears before I have replace the fronts. I do like to PUSH the Box pretty hard though.

Ed,

Thanks for the update. It confirms my decision earlier today to order the BFG G-Force tires. They will cost approx $700 for a set while the PS2s were going to run $1400. If the PS2s only last 10K, I definitely couldn't justify the price difference.

I just put a set of these on the wife's TT, they seem to be a GREAT tire for $400 a set!!!

I'm going to buy a set for the Boxster for my spare wheels before next winter.
