  1. AWD and 1085 HP available = buying tires four at a time, not just two. I am suffering from a serious lust but would have to keep it toned down until at speed on an empty highway.

  2. try tuning your power down and lower the psi in your tires by a little and (if it has) keep traction control, and overdrive on. I hope these suggestions help save you money on tires :/
