80k-100k km is not unusual, so about 50k-60k miles.
Their warranty is outstanding, which is a nice bonus.

Awesome! We are about the same. I drive with Pirelli P7’s and average life is 70-80k miles and of course rotate and valance every oil changes....

You balance your tires EVERY oil change??
My tires are balanced once when they're put on the wheels and maybe 1x a yr when they are changed over from summer-to-winter or vice versa. Unless a tire is hopping or doing something weird there is no logical reason to have them re-balanced.

Exactly. The same with an alignment. No need to mess up things by doing them too often.
