Looks like I'm on track for about 9-10k on them as well. Not the most robust tire but what can I expect for a 140 treadwear rating. I've been looking into alternative on Tirerack and Hankook Ventus seems to have a better rating (280) at a better price (~$200 each). Given I do a couple track days a year, I probably won't notice much of a handling loss, but I'd love to get more mileage from a tire!

Bullitt, will you save the tires for track days? If the track is dry, the nearly bald tires would be sweet to run on those nice days.
