If they are quality tyres it depends on how you drive if the pressure and geometry is OK

Depends how you drive.

I'd expect 5,000 but I have a reputation as a far king lunatic, although it's not exactly true.

If you drive sedately, 10,000 would be more like it and you probably could do with a 'tamer' chassis alignment. It's set up to corner hard and if you don't, the inner edges get stripped prematurely.

I get far more than that Nick and I'm not tame but alot are motorway miles and quite a few are also wet miles which means less wear

So, it depends both on you the driver and the roads you drive

I have tracked my S several times this year and driven about 5k miles in total - the Bridgestones are only half worn!. I'm no driving god so maybe I'm easy on the tyres, all the same...

How you manage to wear out tyres in 5,000 road miles I have no idea, I have yet to see an S2K drifiting on the road, most seem to be driven very sedately. The Toyo R888's on my Westfield last longer.

I would suspect a problem with the car or maybe the tyres - a friend had problem with Khumo's delayering at about 4K miles - just one of the reasons I'm a tyre brand snob!

I started a thread about exactly the same topic about 3 weeks ago !!

I use Goodyear GSD 3's and I only get 5K from a set of rears and have had 3 sets in the last year and a half !!

5000 miles is acceptable depending on what roads you drive on, your driving style and what geo your running.

I've had my car since sept. last year, done just over 7000 miles in it and the Bridgestones all round are in good nick, i have done some advance driver training with them, including looning around a airfield and generally like to keep off motorways, and have fun on twisty B roads
