Just wondering how iong these can last ? 5000km more?? Also wanna know if they handle ok in the wet and does it need a lot of warming up before it gets grip?

Haven't used mine yet..

I got quoted 30,000km with a couple of track days when i bought them - but i think it'll be more like 10-15,000 tops...

They will grip better in the wet than just about any tire you've tried as they are basically road legal wet slicks..

Warm up time unsure - but i think from cold there would be more grip than say a set of Bridgies or Falkens easy

I've been using them for about a year now.
They are good,but if using for hard driving they do need to be warm.
Drove in a road event last weekend.Practice was in the wet,they gripped okay,but still sliding across the road until they gripped :x In the dry they hang on,and it just depends how hard and brave you are with late braking!

A bit off topic but does anyone know how the A032-R's go in 165/70R10?

Would they be pretty much the same? Would I get 10,000k's out of them of normal driving?

Those A048's get more milage than what I thought!

I agree - i was a bit skeptical when he said 30k - I would be very happy with 15k :lol:

LS1380 - How many k's have you done in that year?

I bought mine for $220ea 175/50R13
