How long are your tires lasting?
SubscribeJust tracked my Boxster for the first time 10 days ago when the car had covered about 2500 miles. After about five runs the stock 19-inch Michelin chunked pretty badly and wore on the outside edges. Looks as though I will have to replace these soon. I've ordered a set of 18-inch Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 XL with OZ wheels to use solely on the track.
Any suggestions for a decent street tire with all-weather capabilities (lots of rain here) and better wear performance than the Michelins? They will be used for street only, relatively easy driving.

My car has 14k miles and the rear PS2 are done. I am replacing all four corners with new PS2 next week on 18" rims.
I have an '06 CS with almost 25,000 miles on it. I don't track it and am pretty easy on it. I still have some life in the rears and the fronts still look pretty good. I bet I can get another 5,000 out of the rears before needing to replace them.

Do you like the ps 2's better. I have heard that they are quieter and handle better.Originally Posted by steve k
got about 9k out of my RE050's before I replaced them with some ps2's

I should've replaced them at 20k.
