Default Most mileage out of the stock RE050's

I'm coming up on 24K miles and my tires are nearing the change point. Just curious what's the longest someone has used these tires for (mileage wise) without changing.

25k on the front. I ran over a spike and ruined one rear tire at 11k, so I changed both rear tires. I have tread left on all tires, will probably change around 30K(fronts) 19K(rears) or before the rainy season.

Ah yes, this time around the S is my daily commuter so I'm a little easier on it. The 2000 model I had, I wore through tires much faster as it was my toy not the daily driver.

I bought my '05 in January of this year with 16,000 miles. It now has 24,000 which includes 2 days at Buttonwillow, 2 at Big Willow and a bunch of canyon days. I still have 10% left on the rear RE050's and about 40% on the front. These tires are indestructable.

15000 miles out of the rears and they were toast! Only on track day and they are really expensive.

I have replaced my rears with Azenis and am goint to change the fronts soon as they come off back order
