My wife's 2005 Blast has just over 3000 mile on it and the factory rear tire already needs to be replaced. I'm religious about keeping the factory recommended 30 psi in it. Anybody have a similar experience/advice?

That sound about right for the stock tires.
Check out the "thumper" section. Thats where all the blast guys hang out.
You will find a lot of tire posts.

Blast tires don't last very long, but at least they are cheap. : )

Is 30 PSI the recomended pressure? Off the top of my head that seems low.

I've got a couple sets of Blast tires at the shop that I'll give you a smoking deal on. We're not really selling tires any more, I just want to move them out. I think I have one stock set and one Pirelli set.

Thanks for the help and the direction to the thumper section. I'll be back when my Uly needs tires.
