Hahaha, interesting my avg rear tires last about 6 to 10 Kmiles... definately dure to driving style at certain points.. I have used many tires an on many different vehicles, and overall for last FIVE years I have used the invos on everything I own. Very grippy in rain, snow, dry etc. A very queit tire due to continuos tread im sure. I love how neutral it is and helps ease of controlling rear end... Just opinion..But yea our tire wear mostly is due to our driving style and ofcoarse where we live. Im sure 120 plus pavement temps here in houston during summers dont help, and due to pysics lower pavement temp should help increase tire wear?..Anywho, I love the INVOs and recommend to anyone..

I agree with stealthff on the temperature point..the last few summers in Tulsa where phideltbeers and I live hurt tire life due to temperature (I can only assume)...maybe next summer will be better.................

My sentiments exactly on the PSS.
