Well i had the factory size, and I could of got probably 25k-30k out of them, but the noise level after 18k miles was so bad that i eventually replaced them with around 20k miles on them..................

Ive got about 15K HARD miles on them. From NA through my TN stage now to Built with Greddy twins. I spin these in 2nd gear (burns a ton of rubber compared to 1st gear) everywhere and have done many donuts on them, taken many long road trips and they are handling the abuse better than any other tire Ive had (Ive had 6 diff brands on the rear of Z!) I love em and will be replacing them shortly with another set.

Not nearly as aggressive as Alberto, but 25-30 sounds about right. Love em and will replace with same. Currently 245/35/19F 275/35/19R next set 255/35F 285/35R

I put about 13k miles on my rears only. But that was some pretty abusive miles. I didn't get a camber kit until right before they were done. So I probably could have pulled a lot more miles out of them. They handle so great in the little bit of rain they've seen. But noisy. I don't mind that any.

I had 19x10's and my previous set was 275's and then went to a 285. I would recommend that from what personal experience I've had so far.

22k on mine in OE sizes, just now hitting the wear indicators. That all city driving (lots of turns) and using them thru the winter months (20F-60F).

They are so sticky in warm, so good in rain.. so forgiving for a UHP tire under 50F, I tempted to get another set. But the noise was alittle much. I'm torn. I think they are the best value out there.. but I may consider a few bucks more for F1's or Pilots.
