      Right, my gf needs snow tires bad for her coupe.

      I have bought 4 sets of tires for my Accord since 2003. 2 sets of summer tires and 2 sets of winters, I am halfway thru the second sets now, with almost 100k miles under the belt.

        Seems like whenever I buy brand new tires, I sell the vehicle within a month or two.

          5 sets, but I've had 3 different kinds of wheels (RO_JAs, ITRs and Enkeis)

          All of the 5 sets of tires have been ZR rated 17s, so thats probably why they didn't last so long lol.

          First I bought the car with the stock EX 6 spokes, ran those tires until they were used up. The bought a set of 17" Enkei 5+'s and put Cooper Zeon 2XS tires, then put Hankook Ventus HRII, Then bought the 17" RO_JA Formula 7s in gunmetal and put BFGoodrich G-Force Sports, then put on Yokohama S-Drives and now I'm rolling on Dunlop Direzza DZ101s all 215/45/17s....but I work at Discount Tire so its not like they cost me a lot lol

            On my old CB I used a front pair every 15,000kms, and 20,000kms for the rears.

            On my current CB I get 10,000kms (6000miles) or less on the fronts, and still around 20,000kms (12,000miles) on the rear.


            That's about 6 or 7 full sets I've used in total . . .
            Damn that's alot of money on tyres

            If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                    If I'm driving easy and short distance commutes, I've had tires last me 2 years or so running all seasons.

                    Back in my (younger) days of stupidity and running on cheap suspension setups, oh, dunno maybe a set- rotated, would last me only 6 months...

                    Haven't had my current CB long enough to really answer, so far still only 7000 miles on the set of new tires I got with the car.

                    life is good.
