Hi,
Tire wear is mainly Driver Dependent. How you use them, where you use them, how well you keep them inflated, etc.
You simply won't get tons of use from any Performance Tire because they are made of Softer Compounds, which is what gives them their excellent Grip.
That said, there is both a Wear and Time component to your Tires. Due to Heat Cycling, etc. your Tires will get Harder with age and wear Faster and their Grip will deminish. The Maximum anyone should keep a Performance Tire is 4 Years. After that, regardless of Treadwear, the Tire has gotten Hard and is becoming unsafe. Old Tires are much more prone to Blowout due primarily to their diminished capacity to shed Heat.
Paying for New Tires every 3-4 Years can be a B*tch, but paying for Bent Sheetmetal (Yours and Theirs), and possibly Bent People, is even much more so. BE SAFE!...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
