Hankook tires sound good! Anyone else run them? How many miles can I expect? Boxster is my daily driver so I need a long lasting tire, 10,000 miles won't cut it

If you drive a lot of straight roads you will get 10K+ miles on the Hankooks. If you hit the canyons a lot, maybe not. 5K is about the best I can do.
