Tire life depends upon the UTOG rating, driving style, rotation, etc.

I have a set of BFG KDW 2's that I just replaced. They are about 40% remaining. They have been on two TT's, about 9,000 miles on my 2002 TT and 13,000 miles on my 2004 TT. Total 22,000 miles. I drive mostly freeway commute and rotate every 5,000 miles. UTOG rating for BFG is 300.

I have replaced them with a quieter tire and expect to get about 30K to 35 K from them. They have a UTOG of 320.
