Brakes on 2018 Charger Hellcat

[EricG]

P-Zeros, PS4s, Continental all seasons, now back to PS4s. 45,500 ÷ 3 = 15,167 average miles per set of tires. Are you all getting around that?

I did 18 months and 15k miles on my last set of Michelins on the rear fwiw

How many miles? Perhaps yours will be timed out rather than usage?

Not many miles (unfortunately), there's only around 6K on them. They're timed out I think, being from '18.

But I'm impressed that the shoulders on the front still look very good. They've taken some abuse.

Tire shop that did my motorhome tires also did the Hellcat tires. All 4 PS4s + alignment = $1,600

Discount Tires = $1,900 plus have to get alignment at above place ($75).

Was surprised on the difference fyi...

Main benefit of Discount Tire is their huge network of stores that always do competent work, so if you ever have a problem - especially if you are traveling- you are in their system.

Easy. Got rid of my rears last year because they were old. Say 20,000 miles, almost five years and they had at least 50% thread remaining.

Means your toe is correct. When we got it right the front Cup 2 shoulders even wear well on the road courses!

You are a funny guy... ; )

I got about ~1500 miles out of the P-Zeros before I literally saw cord on the rears. And I only ever did two unintentional burn-outs on them. One was at the Colorado Mile and one was going around a corner where I shifted down a bit too hard. Other than that, it was all just hard acceleration, down-shifts and cornering.

The balance of my 8400 miles on the car is on a set of PS4Ss and I have about 2/3rds or so on them, and only because I've been MUCH nicer to them...

Haven't got around to check it, but it feels like there's a little bit of toe-out, based on how the car reacts at turn-in.

As I've discussed...I have had a slight vibration in the steering wheel at around 80 mph and sometimes it is intermittent based on road conditions.

Wonder if related to rotors somehow. After new PS4s and alignment I will go test.

I wonder...

I get it sometimes. If it were a rotor would be all the time, tire issue

Do what I am going to do this off season. Mess with the back toe and leave the front alone if the tire wear is right. I think mine could turn better but just cannot put my finger on the optimum setting will be. Easy one is the rear, because I have that set almost neutral now.

True. Not so much a "vibration", but can feel the road through the steering wheel more at that speed for some reason. Have to take a trip for work so will test 80 mph again. Appreciate it all. Happy Friday.

That’s not horrible. Maybe.[/QUOTE

Swapped to power stops years ago...will probably never need pads again..or rotors...and tire replacement due to age not wear...my 16 HC...(highest mileage Cat)...just turned 2100 miles

 

[Hellcatcfp]

Everything smooth. Got into some rain...dirty.

Needs a wash for sure.
