Depends how you drive. I am honestly looking forward to changing them anyways. They are horrible.

I only have about 10K miles on my car and the factory rears are pretty much slicks now they are so bald. I don't really drive it all that hard all the time or anything. Most of the miles are highway and I typically do about 75-80 since I am usually traveling to Sacramento (5 hours from me) to visit my girl friend. The fronts still have a lot of life though.

Mine went 11k but that was with four days at the drag strip during their life span also so that shortened it a little.

I have a '09 Base 6MT.
Bought the car at 27,000 miles and the stock Advans were still on there. They were completely bald though, lol. No wires showing. Went to these yesterday: 245/45/18 up front. Last edited by Vbp6US; 04-30-2012 at 03:22 AM. |

I got 24k out of the rears and still had good tread left in front. Got bad toe from the factory so got an extreme amount of feathering. Otherwise I could have gotten 30 out of rear and probably 50-60 out of fronts.

My rears were through at 17,000. The fronts still had decent tread, but I sold them anyway when I went with Pilot Super Sports.
