Running 38-40 or higher all the time can wear out the center of the tire tread way too early (I did this on my old car w/ 205/50-16 Nittos).
I have Nankang EX-500 205/50-15 V-rated tires w/ 320 treadwear. After 25K+ miles total, 10K of that being lowered w/ 2.3 deg. neg camber in front, they still look like this:
hmm, i concure that you drive like my mother, 5 under the limit on straight aways in clear weather, and at the posted limit around curves, like 25 and 35 around corners when the regular limit is 50.
I also concure that if you bought some nice grippy tires, you would stop driving like my mom and start driving closer to the limit of your tires once you saw what they could do.
but i am jealous that you don't have to buy tires as often as the rest of us.
