  • How many miles to break in new tires?

    How many miles is it to break in new tires?? I just put on some Dunlop SP Sport 5000s. I recall it being 200 miles, maybe I'm confusing it with the brakes. My co-worker says 100 miles.... [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

        I just do a few burnouts to break them in... [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

        But seriously I would just drive easy until the tires have lost the oil that come on them from the factory and most of the rubber "hairs" have come off. I would say maybe 5 or 6 days of easy driving ( like 75-100 miles max ). This is just my opinion though...
