Correct me if I am wrong, but why would you put 225s on the rear? and also, my fronts are going slick, if not slicker.

Ouch dude!! I'm glad you're having a ball with it, but I sure hope I'm never in your path on the road.

The tires are all 235. So rotating them isn't a problem. I just went over 20,000 miles on mine. I think these tires have a good life if you take care of them.

I'd have to agree. Sounds like super abuse to wear out that early.
