Put a fresh set of rubber on the back of my E55 before my trip to BimmerFest, and had to replace them after the trip.

That's great. Let us know. That makes these tires a great investment all around.

I got 7k out of my rear Michelin PSS, and by that I mean they were just getting to the wear bars. With the tread life warranty, I could have kept them on and pay more for new tires later, or get a new set of rears with pro-rated warranty. I opted to do that and had two new ones mounted and balanced for around $275.

I was putting on drag wheels this weekend and noticed some premature wear on the inside of one of the new rear tires. I think I have maybe 2,000 miles on them. After doing some investigation, I noticed that the shop I bought them from mismatched my tire sizes. I have a 275/35 on one and a 265/35 on the other. I'm going in on Thursday to get the 265 replaced with a new 275. I was hoping they were going to give me a new set because I wanted to do a photo shoot of me roasting the absolute pee out of these.

The fronts are wearing very well. They are at somewhere around 9-10k miles and don't even look halfway worn. I am lowered and drive a lot in Sport II mode. No premature wear on the insides like the previous two brands of tires I had.

No drag radials here. I've got Hoosier Quick Time Pros now 29.5 lbs mounted on the wheel!!!. Ended up having an issue with cooling and track was ridiculously crowded. Only got 3 runs and effed up the launch on two of them. Trying to load up the stock tq converter at the line and the car just wants to push through the brakes.

Cooling issue: Line from my remote reservoir made contact with a pulley and developed small leak. Coolant all over my clean engine bay . The good news is that by having this happen, I found out I had some mis-routed lines for my s/c system. Fixing them today and it should be like a brand new upgrade.

OK, back to the tires.
