Also ideally get low rolling resistance tires that can get you an extra 5% range next time you need new tires.
I have a ‘22, other than tires and brakes, I’ve only had regular maintenance service done. It’s a dream luxury liner to drive.
What's your goal? To become a professional driver (regardless of it being profitable or not)? to find a new fun way to burn money? To live out a dream of driving a car you maybe can't afford on track? I did the drive an exotic before i had a car that was worth taking on track. It was a blast. I have more fun doing hpde now where I get significantly more track time (and get stuck with the cost of tires and rotors and brake pads and fixing things that break and trying to chase gremlins) . While the idea of racing is appealing the cost of racing is not but if that was a goal progressing towards a license and avoiding picking up any bad habits is your best bet.
Rotating tires, system checks, and topping off the windshield fluid.
One set of tires is my only out of pocket maintenance expense.
My maintenance has been a new set of tires, new wiper blades, gallons of wiper fluid.
Here\u2019s the \u201cbad\u201d stuff that I\u2019ve had on mine:\n\n- LED light on the running board went out. Replaced under warranty\n- backup sensor issue: a wire broke (i think) when I did some \u201cspirited\u201d driving on a gravel road. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- rear drive unit seal weeped a bit. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- stock tires sucked.
And one tire due to a bulge. The tire was not cheap ($500) but I let the dealership deal with it rather than getting it done cheaper elsewhere as I didn't want to drive on a massive bulge.
As others mentioned, run-flats are more suspectable to sidewall damage. They're also heavier and noisier. Also, you may have a wider selection of tires if you go with non-runflat.
I got the wheel and tire warranty when I bought my car. They’ve already replaced 4 run flats for free. I got 2 blowouts in the last 2 weeks hitting pretty average sized potholes that I’ve never had issues before with. Run flats suck.
