I win most miles out of my OEM GS tires
I got 25,354 out of my OEM Good Years on my 2012 GS.
The rear still had some tread but the fronts were about bald.
I Finally got some new Michelin PS2s today.
This is my daily driver and i have had it about a year and 4 months. I drive like an old lady most of the time which is why I was able to squeek out that many miles.

Are they Michelin runflats?
If so, I would love to hear your opinion after driving on them for a while.
Unless I hear otherwise, I am set on Michelin Pilot Sports ZP's for my replacement rubbers once the time comes.

. My 2013 GS OEM GY rear tires lasted 13,000 miles. The fronts are still on with 23,000 miles. I have done three alignments to save the tires. The alignments does nothing to help with the right pedal. I currently have Michelin PS2's on the rear...amazing the car has a stereo and dual mode that can be heard now. Probably go with Michelin non run flats on the front.

Good job! I got over 14k from my original Goodyear GEN2s on my 2011 GS, but I'm a pretty aggresive driver.
I'm gonna easily get past 25k with the Bridgestone Potenza RFs I replaced them with however.

I had one alignment done at around 3,000 miles. Otherwise they wore pretty evenly.
The new tires give a much smoother/quieter ride. They have a pretty wild looking tread pattern.
