I know they are the michelin pilots. Pilots are performance tires so the tread life is usually less than that of say the MXV4's. But i think my lady's need replaced at 28k?

32000 Miles + and the still have tread left, but hardly what I would call a performance tire. They are all season tires and therefore a compromise of abilities.
They are still on the stock rims in my garage. Will be replacing them with winter tires.....Blizzak LM 022's this September.

Jens RSX-S has a bit over 12k miles and they have plenty, I mean plenty of tread left. So yeah, I believe they will last well past 28k miles. It also depends on how you drive, if you constantly launch quick with wheelspin and take every corner as fast as possible they'll wear quicker. Jen really babies her car, basically only when I drive it do I try to really make the car work...
