Exactly... Bang for the Buck... and who really drives these tires to their limits anyway...
I've got 1200 on mine, and they definately rock over my previous p7000ss.
They are soft though, and I expect them to wear quick...<p><a href="http://www.rwnewmedia.com/a4/index.html" target="_blank">

Treadwear ratings are very subjective, and therefore useless.
There is no standard treadwear rating.
The number is basically "chosen" by the individual manufacturers.
A treadwear rating of 200 means that the tire will outlast an "average" tire from that same manufacturer by 2-1.
A treadwear rating of 300 means it will outlast an "average" tire by 3-1.
The numbers are useless when comparing two different brands of tires.
