They don't really warn you, they just start sliding, you can learn to control the sliding though. PPs vibrate before they start sliding as a warning.

Good to know as PP's will be my next tire on the 1125, in an attempt to gain a couple thousand miles of wear.

What did you get out of the Corsa?

Rear was to the wear bars after 2900 miles, swapped it out before my track day.

Thinkin I'll get about the same out of this one, and then the front will be shot too.

Because I'm getting faster, I'm getting more feedback from the tires. Usually the back moving a bit because I'm getting on the throttle sooner and a lil bit harder. I can feel it get a little lose. But good tires are good because they actually give you feedback (most times) and you can adjust. The few times I felt my front slide were pretty scary. Last time it happened was on 5/17 in the same corner my POTM was (100mph+). I felt it slide out 3 times during one corner at the same time. It was most likely due to me weighting the bars too much. Scared the shit outta me, but my tires held enough for me to recover. It took me all day to correct it and find the right line.

This may be true to some people and false to some people. Not everybody feels the same about the same tire.
