Bob,
I've driven mine fairly hard - rallies, super sprints, skid pan events
etc. so it's a bit hard to judge for 'normal' street use. I suppose
I've averaged around 16,000km per set. Although I swapped the first
set over after only 9,000km! I'd expect you'd get 4 years fairly
easily with normal street driving - you should get at least 30,000km
but depends on driving and road conditions etc.... Good luck!

John,
With everyday driving, what kind of mileage do you expect to get out of
them? I put about 6000 miles a year on my 6 and would hope to get 4 years
out of them.
