Haha no. I did use to drive a bit aggresively though (wide roads, perfect weather, young dude). I also think the temperature there had an effect on tire life. I mean, considering peak summer temperatures are about 45 celcius and it's like that for a few months of the year...

And then I also averaged about 10K miles a year or so.
