The last set of rear's on my '07 997.1 Targa 4 lasted about 13k. There was a small amount of cord showing on the inside. The pair now on the car still has 30% tread left with over 15k on them and no cord showing.. Go figure.. I have 19" turbo wheels on my car.. Really wish it came with 18" wheels..

31 k and still have some wear left on fronts. On my 3rd set of rears. All street mileage. All stock. I figure I get about 1 front to about 3.2 rear sets. This is an 06 C4. 18"

I don't track, but I drive my car to and from work on the back roads. I have approximately 20K miles on the fronts and they are still fine. I have two new rears because I got a flat on one of the rears and ruined the sidewall and so I replaced both rears at the same time - they were just a tad below 50% at the time. Im running Bridgestone RE11s. Will try MPSS next - just to try. The RE11s are great.
