    I've got original Re050 Bridgestone tires with a date code of 2008. Lol. My car has 70,000. These came off a friends G8 when new. I got them with 400 miles on them. These tires have 35,000 on them now. I don't ever spin my tires. Lol. Still good tread but starting to get some cracking.

    I was thinking recently that I was surprised my battery was still good, but the day after I decided not to sell it shit the bed. 2008 with 73,000. Other than that and a lifter starting to go I've been one of the luck ones.
