Anyone's tires separating? Or am I a moron... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Ok so... My tread literally, peeled off my tires during some spirited driving. They were at about 50% tread at 7500 miles. I've already been to a drift even and a few mountain runs, with no issues. I expect to shred the tread and them to wear out super fast, but to literally disintegrate? Seems a bit odd. I'll post some pictures with my phone here in a sec, my laptop is dying. I am going to see if Toyota will replace them under wheel and tire protection, but it doubt it....
Any one else had this happen?
Oh yeah, and I am running the OE primacys

Yes, go disclose that you abuse your car to the dealer. I'm sure they will not bring it up when something more valuable on your car quits.

Pics look normal for tires that went through temps they aren't designed for.

uhhhh, what did you expect to happen?

Edit: please be a troll.

Yah these tires arent made for anything except commuting. Anything else its on you. Get ready to fork some cash for better tires

jflogerzi · 03-10-2013, 10:18 PM

Holly crap the tires are well beyond done! Get some new tires ASAP. I have 11K on mine and they still have a tone of tread. I have had very limited spirited driving and no drifting or track events.

zohare · 03-10-2013, 10:32 PM

Lol easy easy. Expected to cook them but was just surprised? I've already tracked the car and not had issues. I'm wondering if its rough patches In the pavement. And to anyone who wants to talk shit please just don't post. I didn't post this to be told I abuse my car. I'm well within the cars limits... I have an AT BTW. I'm tired of derogatory crap. I know I need new tires. Picking up some hankooks this week. I asked if anyone else had similar issues

Not trying to be a troll I knew they'd be shot but this bad? And actually I was almost crying I was laughing so hard when I saw them and my buddy was freaking out. I literally said exactly what you said.

My guess was the drifting event really did a number if you were hard on them. I want new tires, but I won't get them till I use up the stock ones

Thanks for posting pictures BTW
