Sorry if a newb question, first time shopping for good tires and want to get the best I can for the money.
Stock Potenzas are on their last legs and I've been shopping around for a new tire in the stock size. Live in California so all seasons seem like overkill for the temps we have and 3 days of rain we get per year and I wanted a summer tire for my FiST's new shoes.
I noticed most summer tires don't have warranty's and was wondering about how long they are expected to last? I'm looking at Indy 500s as many recommend them but worried about tread life(bought car with 27000 miles and stock tires dead after less than 5000 miles) as I would rather sacrifice a little performance to not have to drop money on tires again in less than a year(driving is about 80 percent commute and 20 percent fun/spirited), so all seasons aren't completely out as a choice.
Any and all advice is appreciated. Thanks.
