Any Terminators on Original Tires???

[RedfireVert]

Just curious how many of you are still using the OEM tires.

I have 12k miles on the original Goodyears. There's maybe 5k left in them. The outside edges seem to wear fastest...maybe that's from cutting corners :-D

 

[EatonMe]

I have the original F1's on the front, if that counts. 16k miles on them, never rotated, or anything, and still look brand spanking new.

HAHAHA, i had the 315 nitto drag radials swapped onto the rear of the cobra across the street from the dealership at NTB before i had signed all the papers LOL!

 

[Seabiscuit]

I'm changing mine tomorrow. I have about 13,000. Rotated once. The fronts are down to the wear mark between the treads.

 

[Huachipato]

due to bad allignment, mine lasted only 4K miles

 

[mblgjr]

I rotate mine every 3k miles. It appears that they will make it 18-20k.

i was like well these goodyears wont last long, so i had me some nittos on in no time.

drag radials that is, 315's.

Still on the original tires until it comes out of storage next year. It's got a set of BFGoodrich KDW's ready to be mounted.

The car has about 7,500 miles on it and the tires are pretty much gone. The F1's are a nice looking tire, but they are not the best performing for what Goodyear charges for them. They wear quicker then the old gatorbacks. I think the BFG's will make a big difference.

7,000 miles still on originals. I'm buying a second set of rears to put drag radials on. And I plan on switching to bfg's when I purchase new wheels.

haha, I love your sig pic :thumbsup:
Mine were gone at 4k as well, but only because I switched to 18"

 

[kennycoulter]

i still have my originals on at 19,000. i bet no one believed that a 24 y.o. could baby a car. im changing the rears tomorrow at work to bfg g-force sport. the fronts still have maybe 5,000 left. ive rotated 3 times.

All 4 originals still in good shape at 10K but I just got a pulley and a tune so I don't see the rears lasting much longer. I am going to go with Nittos DR's in the spring.

 

[Antex]

Mine lasted for 23,260 miles, just replaced them last week. I have ET streets on diamond racing wheels for the track. The rears now have MT DR's for daily driving - got tired of hitting the gas & spinning all the time.... :burnout:

 

[mobius]

hmmm 11k on the car and no originals bought car with 8k had nittos up front and bald bfg drags on rear. now running goodyears in the rear so third set in 11k

 

[SVTkel]

Original tires on the car. But they suck.

 

[RedfireVert]

I'm really surprised most of us have the OEM rubber...

There was a thread 2 years ago where many complained, "I had to change my tires after only 6,000 miles."

 

[PonyFever]

I'm one with original F1's on the front and Nitto's on the rear. Works well for me and I still have one good tire for the front when it's time to change them (Discount Tire broke the bead on a rear F1 when they took it off).

Yeah, a lot of people complained about them. I can understand the bad alignment making them suck, but other than that I can't see how they'd wear down that fast. My rear's lasted 11,000 HARD pullied miles, and they're sitting downstairs in my garage with a little bit of tread left on them. Great tires as far as I'm concerned - just not for traction.

Still on the OEM's w/21,240mi (checked odo) and 4 or 5/32 (visual) of tread remaining.
Change oil & rotate every 5k. Michelin PS2's coming in the spring. :banana:

 

[stangfreak]

i put bfg drag radials on the coby. the stock tires on the rear suck
