How many miles do you get on your 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.

thanks, that's cheaper than I can get a set of PP's!

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?

one track day and about 2500 road miles on Metzler Racetech softs. The sides are shredded but the centers are pretty much untouched. I ride back and forth to work on the interstate mostly.

I have about 8800 miles on my Pilot Road 2 on the rear. It's only worn on the las 1/8" of the tire on the sides. The middle still has the mold release compound on it.

I got 7k out of my PP's...the thread was showing on the rear.
