Hi,
Did my first track day through Hooked on Driving at PBIR about 10 days ago. Stock 2018 M3 with competition package, Pilot Super Sports, 3,000 miles. I didn't monitor the tire pressures/wear closely (regretfully), but the couple times I did showed around 36 psi right after coming off the track. Temperatures in the 60s. I ran in the novice group but felt like I pushed the car pretty well. Ran a total of 120 minutes (six 20-minute sessions) throughout the day. At the end of the day, noticed the left front outside had been "corded" (lots of right hand turns at PBIR), so I had to replace both fronts. (See the attached tire photo).
Would greatly appreciate advice on how to extend tire life, keeping in mind that I don't have ability to perform any maintenance on my own and will need to take the car to a shop for any mods/adjustments. Sounds like I should expect tires to last at least 2-3 track days under normal use. I certainly understand that my lack of track experience contributed to the shortened tire lifespan; hopefully as I gain more experience I will learn how to be easier on the tires. Thanks.
