I have a friend that had them on his Porsche. No track days, they lasted 2,000 miles! I love my Michelin SS on my M3 and I've gotten about 12,000 miles out of the rears so far. It's getting close.

yeah.. i got a decent amount miles out of my NT01s I had on my other car maybe about 12,000 miles or more I ran them to the threads were showing though.. was a much lighter car though..

My Mickey Thompson ET Streets have less then 2,000 miles and already at wear bars with 2 drags days..
Imagine tires up there last about as long..
NT01 have 100 treadwear those have like 80 treadwear

The Cups are absolute hell out on an auto-x course or the track. Just don't hit any rain on the way home and realize that they're hockey pucks under 50 degrees or so. I am really looking forward to seeing how well the OEM Michelins work on the new chassis. Given the skidpad results to date, it should be amazing. Really looking forward to getting out on the course and my favorite twisty roads in the middle of nowhere
