Tires?

[MantisTaboggin1975]

Sorry if this has already been covered in a different thread. My 16 pp GT has just under 15k miles and my rear tires are worn down to the steel. I have never used line lock and rarely break the rears loose. They are the Pirelli p zeros and a buddy of mine with the same car said he had to replace his at 15k also. My question is, what are you guys running and how much should I expect to pay per tire? Thanks in advance.

My car has the 20" wheels from the factory and came equip with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires. I'm just shy of 16k miles and last I looked they were at around 5/32

I'm the same as you and have never used line lock, but mine break loose quite a bit if I'm not careful.

Wow, mine only lasted 5k miles! Good luck brother!!:cheers::frusty::headbonk:

I have the EB/PP and replaced the rear tires at 8500, rotated the front to back and replaced those 2 at 14k. I am back on OEM tires but rotating them frequently.

I replaced the tires with the OEM Pirelli for less than 200 per tire mounted and balanced.

I bought a pair of new pzero rears on local classifieds for dirt cheap. 15k miles wow. I'm at 7k and they are close to being replaced. My fronts are 8/32.

Op..if available in the tire brand you choose, go with a 285/40/19. Will make your 3:73 gears feel just right and for every 20 miles you drive you'll only register 19..

I'm sorry but did you say you rotated your fronts to the back and backs to the front? Mine are staggered so not an option for me. I have heard good things about the Bridgestone potenza pole positions....thoughts?

The EB/PP does not have a staggered setup so they can be rotated. For the first 8500 miles I didn't rotate the tires until the rear tires were replaced.

Oh gotcha

You want summer tires or all seasons? Either way, expect right around $200 a tire plus installation

 

[MantisTaboggin1975]

Probably summer tires. I drive my truck mostly in the winter.

^^^This.

I have 25k on the original P-zeros and will probably get 40k out of the set. This is due to working out of the house and driving a lot of highway miles at 2-3 hours a stretch.

The factory issue tires on '18-'19 GT w/ PP is the Michellin Pilot Sport 4S (MP4S) and those will cost you closer to $300 a tire, but some decent bargain summer tires can run in the $200 range. Price depends on size.

TireRack.com has good prices. Expect to pay about what the tires are going for on that site.

If you can find them, Firestone Firehawk Indy 500's are a great tire for the price. $723. With the $60 mail in, all four tires set me back a grand total of $663 installed.
Traction is great, looks are great, handling is great, they are quiet, more predictable and last FAR longer than the Pirellis.
