Smile 9K miles average

Hi, I had an 98' S40 2.0T im sure the suspension set up not probably like yours but it used to do around 9000 miles on a front set of tyres, maybe 10k average, but not much more, rear tyres youl'd probably get 3x as much mileage from. And this was with reasonable driving nothing too lead footed, tyres like P6000. Usually with tyres you trade off grip for mileage, a harder compound lasts longer but wont probably grip as well as a softer one that will wear more quickly. Only my experience over 170,000 miles in an S40.
