Never had an issue getting over 30k out of a set of ties on my ZHP, and that's with 3 track days a year on each set.
Awesome choice, DW. They perform very very well for being all seasons and lasted me 35k with 4 track days.I ended up going with the DWS's. I could not talk myself out of them. After looking at price, customer reviews, weight (significant), tread width and UTQG....on paper (and from talking to people) they just stack up as a superior tire. Done....

It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

Interested to see how they work out for you DW. We drive about the same amount. I'm on my second set of V12s but thinking of going to an all season. I left the V12s on this winter to see how they did. Although I was pretty impressed, think I want to go to a all season for a little more traction.

I was just doing some TireRack "what if" scenarios last night myself. Very interested to hear what you think of the DWSs.
I've got two sets of Style 135s now, so I've been kicking around going to a square setup on the new car. Which opens up a whole can of worms - all fronts? all rears? Tire size? Summer or A/S? I've also got a set of brand new 17" Beyern CSL reps with all season Kumhos I could run for winter, assuming they fit over the bigger brakes on the ZHP. Too much to think about. Might go work on my taxes - that's simpler.

Use the 8.5s all around with summer tires and the fronts with winters. Win win. 255/35/18 summers and 225/40 for winters.
