How Long Do TIRES Last On GR Supra?

See how long the OEM Michelin Pilot Super Sport (BMW spec) tires lasted on my 2020 Supra. Be sure to watch this whole video so you can inspect your GRSupra for the odd wear! Also hear why I didn't go with the OEM tire! Have you replaced your MK5 Supra tires yet?

I had the super sports on my 14’ mustang GT and they were great. Not the stickiest tire but they worked well. I also had 285/35 r19 but on all 4 corners. I think you’ll like those.

[@CarGuy11]

Yeah I definitely like both & I hope the 4S perform as well as the BMW spec Super Sports on the Supra.

[@beexiong2995]

Hey man, I went 15k miles on the factory Pilot super sports. I might have been able to go more but the cold season caused them to crack. Have Continental Extreme contact dws6 now and I love the all season grip, wet, cold, hot. The car also tracks so much better straight versus stock. Brand new it tracked all over the place on uneven surfaces.

[@CarGuy11]

Ok nice. Hopefully the 4S will last a lot longer like in my C7.

[@zeethru]

A review of them in the Supra would be nice! Wonder if there is a noticeable difference between stock and the 4S as far as comfort and grip

[@CarGuy11]

Absolutely stay tuned!

Call Michelin and they will pay for the tires under warranty. Mine is a 2021 and today I called and they will be paying for the tires only saving me 1800. It’s common on all supras with the same tires

[@GT3Chef]

I had my rears changed at 9200 hundred and I've never tracked there car.. just lots of spirited driving. The slight camber on the rear and peak torque at low rpm cause mine to do the same (especially on the inside portion), the fact your can't rotate the tires hurts as well.. plus I think on my first set I ran a lower PSI (32ish cold, and 35-36 hot) all around. I ended up keeping my fronts after the change (good condition), but it seems I'm going to have to change my rears twice, maybe even three times, before I ever need to change my fronts. My alignment was good as well. It was just how I drove it mainly, I was near 2/32, wire wasnt showing.

[@CarGuy11]

Oh ok thanks for the feedback. I’m curious about my alignment so will post results in next video.

[@GT3Chef]

@@CarGuy11 I'm curious about how the new set up works for you, all my porsche buddies switch to that exact tire and they love them. Can't wait to see the reviews.

[@CarGuy11]

More to come for sure including comparing track lap times to OEM tires. I was running 32psi cold as well & going up to 34psi on new tires.

[@perfctblend3714]

Discount tire direct is the best !! I picked up Michelin PS4S for a solid price.

[@CarGuy11]

Agreed I bought my C7’s PS4S there as well although they just opened a store in Pittsburgh for install this time.

[@coreystick2443]

Did you get the alignment? I’m having similar wear pattern problem on inside of rear tires.

[@CarGuy11]

Yep. Pretty normal with these cars. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJOsiZyDqb2npqc

[@Hurry_Revive_Me]

I bought mine with 50 miles on the odometer, the GM at Audi bought it just to have it in his stable. He replaced the PSS with RE71Rs right off the bat. I got about 16k miles out of them. Im now on Hankook ventus v12 evo2s and im hoping to get a good amount out of them. Its crazy how long a lot of these brands last on the Supra.

[@CarGuy11]

Yeah I’m hoping for a lot better wear with the 4S tires.

[@mansorer5388]

My oem tires have 22k miles and they still look brand new. Obviously due to you tracking and dragging the car🤦🏻

[@WreckedBrewery]

Wow only 10k is crazy. Maybe some difference between sports car tires vs cars I've driven but I've never had that happen before. My Jeep Cherokee was the quickest I had to replace the OEM tires in the 30k range and I thought that was fast. Hope you get a lot more life out of those new shoes. Cheers!

[@CarGuy11]

Haha yeah sports car life. Thanks man!

[@justingoad8166]

Have you ever had an alignment done since you got the car? I had one done right after I lowered it around 500 miles and I pulled my stock tires off at 15k miles for new AutoX tires and they still have 50%+ life. They have been thought 20 AutoX events also. Needless to say the stock alignment is horrible on these cars.

[@CarGuy11]

Alignment is the next thing I’m doing. Was yours off? Stay tuned for next video.

[@justingoad8166]

@@CarGuy11 yes my factory alignment was after lowering. Never checked it before then.

[@davidbrown5785]

The stock alignment on these cars is way off., I had mine aligned with no mods and the alignment was off. It’s a much better car after alignment.

[@biggusbestus551]

This brings to mind the "bump steer" complaints the 2020 Supra was getting from some reviewers. My car does a funny over steer thing when you let off the gas in a turn and the weight transfers to the front.

[@ActNasty5]

Hey mine has the same thing, was there an alignment issue?

[@CarGuy11]

Not really off much. Check out the following vid. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJOsiZyDqb2npqc

[@ActNasty5]

@@CarGuy11 thanks i ended up watching it! Any issues now with the new tires? Mine has a spot like that but it doesnt go around the whole tire. 8.5k miles

[@CarGuy11]

New tires are great. I also made a track review of the 4S tires if you want to check that one out.

[@T-Boned]

Did you try your Toyota dealership for the tires?

[@CarGuy11]

No I didn’t try dealer.

[@T-Boned]

@@CarGuy11 they typically do price match if you find the same tire somewhere else. And are a good option to look at for availability and price. Highly recommend

[@dougbarnes1503]

Well, let's analyze this, you a posted video of adding wheel spacers on 10/19/19, and now you have accelerated wear on your tires, I wonder if there could there be a connection...

[@CarGuy11]

Wheel spacers don’t affect alignment though.

[@lambbosbread123]

@@CarGuy11 but they change the scrub radius which in turn will wear the tyres, that is why the rear is wearing the inside of the rears so much

Get that alignment done , first mod with the Supras .

[@CarGuy11]

I did but wasn’t really off by much. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJOsiZyDqb2npqc

I'd kill for 10k+ on stock tires. 8500 for me. Zero track days.
