Curious how much life you guys think I will squeeze out of these.


running r-spec wheels on a non-R GT350 and tires are Cup 2 325/30/19 XL in the rear and 305/30/19 in the front.


the pictured tires have 125 miles of street driving and 40 laps at Laguna Seca (110 miles of track time).

If it were me, I'd replace the front ASAP!!:whew:
Haha I don’t think that’s necessary. I obviously need more negative camber, but these tires can essential wear down to slicks on the outer half. I just don’t know how many sessions I should expect before I get there.

The backs look great. Fronts are getting there. I'd replace them because I hate being the guy who causes a flag. DOH!

BTW, what camber are running in front? Stock?

In case it’s throwing folks for a loop, the fronts are the regular load model and the rears are the XL and started with about 25% more tread depth. So the fronts are not hugely more worn, they started with less depth.

I’m only running -1.1 in the rear and -1.4 in the front. Definitely need more.

Is that a really messy plug on the front right tire?

they look fine, I get 3-4 track days, 5 20 min sessions a day, out of my fronts and 4-5 days out of the rears.
