just aggressive street driving in the hills, and some autocross. the sidewalls on the RE92s are just too soft, and will roll heavily under quick cornering. that wears out he shoulder of the tire pretty quickly.

mine lasted for a good 28k, before i replaced them. btt i went to mount my new tires, the folks at auto innovations shook their head while saying you should have replaced these a long time ago. when i did the penny test, the tread was at abe's hair line.
