I would be surprised if you got more than 12,000 miles out of the stock tires and you will probably get less, especially on the rear. They could wear out on the inside tread as soon as 7500 miles. The wear ratio(UTOG)is 140! Any real hot lapping or fast driving will cause faster wear of course. I would suggest keeping the tire pressure to the cold maximum(35psi) to extend tread life.
