How many miles do you get on your tires?

This is something that I don't want to think about......

Got 3K out of each of my rear Corsa III's. 6K out of the front.
Hope to get 5-6 out of the set of PP's now, but I liked the feel of the Corsa's better.

Got 11K out of the stockers on the SV... but they sucked all around. Now comonboys put Roads on it, should last another 11K.

The corsa IIIs are pretty soft, I get less miles on them on a 600 over the PPs. Usually around 4k or so, compared to 5-6k with my PPs. I wear both tires pretty evenly, so I usually replace both at the same time. I usually wear the sides faster than the middle. Especially the lefts.

Big torque and wheelies are hard on rear tires.

The last set I got about 7000 out of, but the wear bands were showing bad when I changed them (Continental Conti-Forces) The current set has about 4000 and they're about half done (Maxxis Supermaxx). I commute and day ride. I don't ride agressive, stunt, or do trackdays so I'm able to be more conservative on my tires.

For the record, I didn't like the Conti-Forces...they sucked ass. The Supermaxx's are a dream compared to them. Next month or so I'll be putting Road Attacks on her. I can't wait!

Let me know what you think of them. They are on the list for the next tire for the buell.

I rode my ex's SV several times with these tires and I loved them! Especially compared to what was on mine. It gave me more confidence than other tires I've ridden on (which isn't many) I couldn't tell you how much mileage he got out of them because he sold the bike with them still on.

The only reason I got the Maxxis after the Conti-Forces is because I got a deal on them. I would have went with the Road Attacks then if I could have gotten them at what I could afford at the time. When I bought tires a couple of weeks ago, I knew I wanted to Road Attacks and started researching to see who had the better price. Ridedirect had the best price and had them to me in about 3 working days.

I run the Continental Sport Attacks on my SV. I like them quite a bit, can only compare them to Dunlop D220's and D207's though. And no, I can't comment on the mileage of the Sport Attacks because I forgot when I put them on.

Sports should be considerably stickier and not wear as well as the Road Attacks. Roads are a sport tour vs a sport tire.
Kind of makes me wonder which to try first?
