Hi. I am new to the forum, I am hoping to gather some info about my 2018 Stinger GT AWD. Particularly about the unusually high tire ware.
I'll have a look around. Thanks in advance ..

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I’m glad you found us. We have a section here dedicated to wheels and tires. I’m sure you’ve already found it.

If anyone could direct me to posts regarding buying a tire that lasts longer than the stock stinger tires, i would appreciate it.

I don’t have an exact discussion to link to, but try looking in this section:

Suspension, Brakes, Wheels, Tires Discussion

Discuss all aspects of the Stinger suspension, brakes, struts, coil overs, lowering springs, wheel spacers, driveshaft, CV joints, differential, axle shafts, u-joints, and the modification and upgrade of such.

Your car came with high performance Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires that can't be rotated because the car runs a staggered setup (bigger tires in the back vs the front). They wear very quickly which is totally normal for one of the best performance tires you can get and is focused on grip. If you're looking at extending tire life you should consider moving to a tire like the Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 or the Bridgestone Potenza Sport AS both of which would last a lot longer but will provide less cornering grip in the summer.

Thats what im looking for. my wife does not drive fast so we don't need sport tires. just tires that will last as long as possible. we have dedicated winter rims and tires.
Did you pull this from a post by chance? I have started looking for threads on longevity but havent found 1 yet.
Thanks

I just put on my 2021 Firestone Firehawk Z tires . I was told by the dealership that the OEM Michelin tires are a good tire but at the low end of the Michelin line.
I am not a huge fan of Michelin and decided to go with the Firestone Tires
