by **papa solara** » Fri Jan 30, 2004 5:07 pm

I changed my potenzas at about 17,000 miles , the tread was at about 50%.

my two re92's lasted about 50K, the other two wore down quicker cuz my camber was off. they should last at lest 40K or more.

the only reason jeff and my tires lasted so long is cuz we take care of our cars :drinking:

good point.. drove my yokohama avids all the way to almost 65K.....

...36k. Still had 4/32 remaining when I upgraded to 215's.............

They were dead @ 25K & Replaced with even cheaper Falcons! They are worse because now I have this problem (47K) that no matter how many times I balance the wheels they vibrate @ 65mph+

Toyota guy said that they are "squared" whatever that means. Anyways the next replacement is with an 18" wheel and tire package. w/ Michelins all the way. No more drama. :roll:

its kinda weird how the RE92's all have diff mileage life... guess its the type of driver eh?

to solarat's next tire choice, i would knudge you to get yokohama avs sport or the bridgestone pole position s-03. they are both top of the line tires.

i was reading about tires on tirerack, and those scored very high. (the bridgestones were actually rated no. 1)

yea.. for the people that tires lasted under 25k..do u guys drive hard?

About 30K for me. They werent bald when I had them taken out (maybe 10-20% left), but they were crappy enough for the snow that I wanted them changed out anyways. They were shaking like mad at anything over 60MPH too, and hydroplaned like it was a lost art. Got me some Kumhos because I'm a poor poor college boy, but its all good now. I hope they dont last too too long since I need a good excuse to get plus size up to new rims.

I thought solara came with michellin energy tires. ??? Well I have bridge stone potenza92 on my other car for about 20k and it still has lot of thread left and no vibration problems. I don't really drive hard so I hope it will last another 20k

it seems that there are various models of the RE92's here:

i.e. Solara's 91H v. ES 300's 91V.

Mine lasted for about 25K

I got about 17000 mi. out of mine before I had to replace. Good riding tire, but terrible wear.
