OEM high-performance summer tires on the 18" rims usually get 18-25k depending on how aggressive the person drives. Depending on if you select summer tires or all season tires, you'll get a range of performance. Most summer tires last 18-25k, most all season tires can extend the life to 35-40k depending on the tire's performance. My OEM Dunlop Sport Maxx got 23k miles, my Michelin Pilot Sport A/S got 36k miles and I expect my current tire Goodyear F1 summer tires to last 28-30k.

my er33's lasted 18k miles in the front and i could have gotten another 5-7k in the rears (damn toe was a bit off)

I have re760's as well.....much better tire overall.

It's really going to depend on many factors.
  • Driving style
  • Tire tread rating
  • Alignment(Whether if camber/toe is bad or not)
  • Driving condtions ( Freeway miles or stop n go)
  • Condtion of the road (smooth asphalt or rocky pavement)

My OE Bridgestone has about 4/32 left, drove about 19k miles. But these tires have very low 140 tread rating.
