I have the stock Yokos and s-techs springs. I have 14,170miles and have taken my car to the dealer for all tire services (cause I get new ones for free when these go). I'm taken my car in the morning to get them rotated and that will probably give me 4K-5K more miles and then I'll need new ones so they will have lasted me about 18K-20K miles. Once I get my new free ones I'll get new rims with new tires and switch the rims out to the old when I take long trips.

I took my car in today and they said I needed new tires so stock Yokos lasted me 14,200miles (i am lowered on s-techs). I got my "free" tires I walked out of there paying $321. That was for my 15K maintenance, align, mount, and balance tires. I do have to say my car seems to be riding a lot better.

Oh yeah, they put new stock Yokos as the free tires. They wanted to put cooper tires on but I asked the guy to try and get the Yokos cuz that car just doesn't seem to be a cooper tire car.

I'm at 31,000 on the Potenzas. I'm confused about the "stock" Yokos. Is that for 2007 or somethin?

The Yokos have come stock since 2005 model. I had/have them and like them better then the BS Potenzas. My first pair only lasted 15K miles but I lowered my car and raced at the track so there was no hope.

Damn?!? I just finally replaced mine after a nail destroyed one of my rears (it still didn't blow). You guys must drive like it's the end of the world? I got 66k off of mine, no sidewall bulging and roughly 50% still remaining (I rotated them every other oil change). And by all means I drive spirited.

As for a full conclusion I was happy with them but I wouldn't get them again. Just got some Kumho's Ecsta's ASX and already in the wet I can feel a difference. I'll have to wait til Spring for a full report as they need to be broken in.

Man? You guys are gonna' be paying an arm and leg for tires if you're only getting 14k off of them?!?

I get free stock tires for life from the dealer. All I paid for my new ones was to mount and I think it was only like $30-$40. Not bad for $800 tires.

I get free battery and tires for life. It was an incentive to buy from them. Most dealers down here do it now.
