Nismo Dunlops

[ZMidlife]

Well 5k miles in and the s007 on the rear. Theyre on the wear bar on the inside stock geometry eh.

Well dealership sold me the Nismo dunlops buy 3 get 1 free. I will report the difference!

Is that due to an alignment issue?

Is that due to an alignment issue?

The rear camber is setup from the factory to increase performance, this leads to faster wear in the inside line

no way that tire should have worn in 5k miles though. I am getting over 10k miles from the rears with the Dunlop and that is with mountain driving and track time.

The unfortunate truth its at the wear bars. Proper inflation and stock height.

I got about 5600 miles from my rear OEM Dunlop's on my Nismo
Front are about halfway.

That's one track day and every drive is spirited.

I got an alignment around 2200miles, basically 0 camber and toe

Still, if you got a good deal on the OEM Dunlops, they perform very well as a stock tire. Just run them and expect the short life span. It's a trade-off for softer rubber for handling.

I guess I need to drive harder

Most of my mileage is road trip though. I find myself using my 124 more often for track and canyons.

Nice, and yep softer compound, stickier, what's the treadwear, 220 or 300?

Only thing I hate about these tires is that they are really heavy. When I looked up the weight I think the rears was 33 or 34 lbs and the fronts was 32 or 33 lbs, basically a lb apart. But I'm going Continental ECS 02 after my tires wear out and they are 26 lbs lighter for all 4.

Goodyear has a really really light tire that almost won my $$ 2-4lbs lighter

I want to say 200 or 220

It's on the sidewall - Treadwear xxx Traction xxx Temperature xxx - I'm curious, they perform great for OEM tires.
