I am looking at an 06 SS with the 18" goodyear rsa's. car has 38,200 miles and tires look actually really good. how many more miles can I get out of them before having to buy new tires.I will not be doing burnouts or any drifting.well maybe just a few little chirpers.

 

Depends on tire wear, not enough info.

 

I have no idea, but I do know that the GoodYear RS-A tires are terrible. I may be replacing them if I get new wheels this summer, and my car only has 17K miles.

 

+1
When I went looking for another Monte to purchase I was shocked a appauld to see that they all have these original tires on them. Which ever Monte I choose, my first purchase will be new tires. I hope I can use that as a bargaining tool to get the price down.

 

Yep, they kind suck... bad

I just bought my SS with 28,000 miles and immediately bought new tires. (the rs-a"s only had 5-6 32nds left on them anyway)

 

thanks for the info. seems like nobody likes them. if I can get the deal I want on this car I might have to wait about 6 months fo new tires. just curious what did you get instead cully.

 

I got Goodyear Eagle GT's

I worked out a deal when i bought the car that I would buy the tires off of tire rack and ship them to the dealership and they mounted and balanced them for free.

Night and day difference

 

Wow, Cully, that isa great deal. It is still weird thinking about our Montes. They are like cousins or something.

 

Yep! I meant to ask you, who was your salesman

(sorry off-topic)

 

Bill Gutschick. He mentioned there was another interested party. I have been hounding him for my second key and fob. I actually just got off the phone with him. Supposedly they are on back order. I told him I have searched and I can buy one today without any problem, but I do not think it is my responsibility when he told me that they will get me one. Besides the key issues, he is a great guy.
