Mazda RX-8 Tires and Wheels
I brought my RX-8 to the dealership today for recall 4206F. When I picked up the car at the end of the day, the printout they gave me had an item that read, "RED STATUS - NEEDS TIRES NOW"
How long are the tires supposed to last? I have 18-inch wheels and about 32800 miles on my RX-8. How many miles did you guys have on the car when you replaced the tires?
Thanks in advance.

That's more than reasonable.
I have heard the Avon's are just as good, and much cheaper.
any other thoughts??
I did expect this but I am wondering if anyone knows if this can be corrected by adjusting or resetting the computer? I do expect this to correct itself when I replace the front tires with ones which more closely match the diameter of the rear. I have put these tires to the test and they truly are a significant benefit. I would like to get rid of the anoying warning lights or better yet readjust the computer to assure that these systems work and give indication only when there is a real problem. My research has shown that the indicators light due to a difference in tire diameter front to rear only.
any recommendations?
