I am thinking about getting a Speed3 but i want to know how often you have to change the tires out. My friend told me 6 months but he drives his car like a mad man. Thanks

All depends on how heavy your foot is and how gentle you are with the clutch. Tires can last you over 1 year if you drive normal...conservatively.

Or they can last you 6 months if you are burning rubber at every street light.

Its all on you... I would estimate you can get 20K-30K on the stock tires if you drive conservatively...

I've got 10K on mine and they are still brand new...minimal thread wear.

I drive easy as hell and am at 17k and this is my last stretch of them before the next oil change in 5k miles. I will get just over 20k and that is all I would epect from them with easy driving.

I don't think I drive crazy and my stockers are @ wear bars @ 15k

I am going with the Toyo Proxes here real soon so I will let you all know how they work out. I should get a bit more mileage and still very good performance at about $50 less per tire then the stockers.
