I have a buddy on the forum who has a roadster with Conti's and he got 3-4 times as much mileage out of his tires.
I don't spin the tires and I don't fly around curves, Michelins are very soft tires. Next time around I'm definitely switching brands.
That's odd as my original Conti's only lasted around 14,000 or so miles. The P/S's I have on now have lasted 17,000, and I drive somewhat aggressive, some of the time.
