No one is more surprised than I. I bought the car used with 18+K and the tires (RE050) were about half 3/4ths used up. I drove the hell out of them just so I can replace them at 20K so I would have a nice round number from which to start. I'm currently at 51,027.
On a side note, I did not touch the alignment that came with the car. The tires show even wear on the fronts and the rears show just a touch more wear on the inside of the tire compared to the outside but that's normal given the factory spec rear camber.
If the new tires wear this well, I'll have to take eklipz98's advice and speed up

Just ordered Z1 Star Specs all around (225/255) from Orlando at Auto Innovations. Getting installed along with the Euro spec alignment on Monday. 
This was the impetus... Got 22K out of my stock set, so I guess I drive like a grandma.
Made a couple of brief trips with the donut up front, and wow, it SUCKS.
