Tires Z8's, don't wait

Training Wheels
I got 12,000 miles on a set of PR2's on my '09 1400GTR.  The tread on the front was at the minimum but the rear looked like it still had some life until I took it off.  On close inspection, I was surprised to see how much scalloping there was.

The Z8's are a huge improvement over the PR2's.  Lighter turn-in and the handling improvement gives more confidence when cornering.  Hopefully I'll get as much mileage.

When you change the tires, be sure to check the pre-load on the steering spindle bearings as called for in the 15K mile check list.  If you don't check, you won't know.

Have fun
