I'm right there with ya. I really need them to last until the DE at least. Actually I may not drive it at the event now. I'd like to wait until summer to put new rubber on. Regardless, I'll just be replacing the rears. The fronts still have a ton of life left on them.

As short a life as these tires seem to have I'll probably go with something less expensive and much wider.

The PSS lasts much longer than the PS2 in my experience, fyi.

Will it get you pulled over for drifting an under-pass in 2nd gear, and then let go with a warning because the cop has read about it and likes the car?

Yes it will!

You got a better cop than I did. My guy asked if the car was an M3. Seriously? You're California Highway Patrol, and it's your job is to look at cars all day. You can't tell the difference between a 1 series and a 3 series?

I'd expected better; I guess even some CHP aren't car guys.
