How long do the stock tires last ?
Have about 18k on my 2010 G37. Discount tire says the tires are in their last rotational cycle , and have approx 5-7k left on them.
I'm surprised by this. I was hoping that the stock <Goodyear> tires lasts atleast 30k miles.
Share your experience..
EDIT:
I have the stock Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires on 17" wheels (non sport)!!!

stock tires on G37S coupe (i think Bridgestone RE50 or something) lasted me almost 30ks
wheels are staggered front and rear on the S coupe, so no rotation allowed

I'm assuming you have the Sport model (or the tire/wheel upgrade pkg). The stock Bridgestone Potenzas last from 12-25k depending on your driving habits.
These are ultra performance summer tires w/ a treadwear rating of 180, so you should expect very fast wear, but the tradeoff is these tires grip very well. My Potenzas on my 07 were done at 19k. If anyone has the 17" Goodyear RSAs do yourself & your car a favor and replace them ASAP, these are about the most unsuitable tire for a high HP performance vehicle ever!
The RSAs are for a 200hp Camry

I noticed my stock Bridgestones had a tread wear of 140 and usually you can multiply that number by 100-150 and get a good idea of how they will last...if you drive like a normal person.

If you like to drive aggressively (and since you own a G it's much more fun, lol) I'd strongly recommend going to at least an 18" rim, I like 20s but 19s are a great compromise for comfort and performance. The bigger wheels will allow you to run lower profile tires which equals stronger sidewalls that really keep you connected to the road. The ride will be a bit rougher but it's such a great tradeoff that I'll always sacrifice a little comfort to have the much improved performance. You may be able to find someone selling stock 19" coupe wheels & tires for a great price, that would get you a much better combo for getting the most out of your G.

I'm at 30K right now with the goodyear rs-a 17s and have 4/32s left all around. I take very good care of the tires. 33-34psi all around. Rotation every 5K. Alignment and balance yearly.

I have 24,500 miles on my stock 17" goodyear tires. They are starting to get pretty low but I believe i still have a good 6 mths on them before I absolutely have to change them.
