How many miles are you getting on a set of front tyres ? I've just gone from new to near enough the tread-wear indicator in 7000 miles on Falken 452's

I had some Nero Zeros on my old coupe and they lasted no time at all! Put some harder ones on and they were better and the grip wasn't that different.

Used to be 6k maximum when I worked at a different office and it was b-road driving to get there. Now I drive up and down a dual carriageway and sit in traffic they've lasted me a year and just about need replaced - I'd guess at 10k or there abouts.

I get around 12,000 miles out of my Falken FK-452's
Most of the time the girlfriend is with me so I don't drive that enthusiastically.

My current fronts have been on there for about 15k miles. I expect I'll need to change them within the next 2-3k.

Last set of fronts lasted over 20k. I'm not sure of the exact figure as they were on when I bought it. This set aren't doing so well, about 10k so far and I'll be lucky if I get another 5000. Were originally Toyo T1-R, but I think they stopped making them, so I'm now using T1-S, the replacement. (Might be the other way around, I can't remember and I'm too lazy to go outside and look at my tryres). Rears are still going well at over 30k
