I went though just about 50% of a set of tires in two weeks. I haven't even been racing, I just got my car, it has a Stage IV clutch and I was told not to ride it - rather to let it grab quickly just the way it wants to.

Obviously, this causes wheelspin in 1st gear when taking off normally.

My tires are now half done.

Is it really that bad to ride a Stage IV? I mean just minimal riding, so that I can leave a light without spinning?

 

go ahead and ride the clutch, but dont ride it too much, should be ok. also, how low is the car (if lowered)? is the car aligned correctly (or as much as possible)? they have an effect on tire usage as well

 

The car's barely lowered, it has Tein HA coilovers but they are set to near-stock height for their break-in.

THe car's also aligned yes.

The tire wear is very even.

I guess I will ride it a bit more rather then peel @ every light.

 

how do you like the HA's? where did you get them? Out of curiosity, how low can they go? im interested in get the ha's. thanx

 

how much do u drive ur car?

 

what tires?
