On my second set of yoko OEM rears, I have managed to get about 8500 miles compared to 6000 miles I got on the first set with perhaps more track time with this set; but with this set I have been running at 38 psi instead of the 40 psi. I am NOT complaining ..... ;-)
However even at 38 psi, the center is wearing much too sooner that the sides. The last 300 miles I have been running at 36 psi.
My question is this: the rear right and especially left have now reached the treadwear mark. The left is at par with the treadwear. How many more hwy/twisty mixed miles can I still get out of these before seeing the silver lining underneath ........ I already have a brand new pair in the garage but wanted to maximize the wear on these ......
We have a club road trip scheduled for this Saturday from Sacto to Tahoe/Reno and back, probably about 300 miles with some spirited driving <g> ....... I showed the wear to America's Tire store which said it should be OK if I do not hit water, they even recommended going to as low as 34 psi or lower without affecting built-up heat in the tires under "normal" driving ......
Any suggestions?
