About 7000 a set. With 8-10 track days on them.

One note, these F1s still grip fantastic after the thread is gone in the dry. Once wear bars were no longer visible, I still got 3 solid track days out of mine.

They do indeed, I still had to change mine at 7500, as once wear bars are there I cannot pass NY inspection, no choice but to get new ones.
Could definitely get a track day or two out of them still, but I drive on street 90% of the time and must be up to date on inspection.

The upside, SC3s are less expensive than many other options, and are tremendous performers!

I'm at 16 track days and 3mm still remaining on my original SC3s. They wear quite well.

I'm starting to wonder though if the rubber is getting a little harder and grip is going down a bit. Then again, I can still hit pretty high momentary G numbers like 1.35 from time to time.

Gotcha and totally agree. They are near Cup2 level of grip at a pretty decent price.

16 days is awesome! That’s great wear.

Just shy of 13k each on two sets of Goodyears, switched to Continental Extreme contact sports and have a little over 36k miles, still some tread. Mounted up Continental DWS's on second set of wheels for the "off season", so we'll see on those.

Street only, weekend cruiser.
Rear tires went bald and fronts got cupped.

The Goodyears really grip, and throw everything on the road at your rear quarters. They do get hard with age, so did the Conti extremes. I thought driving in the cold (above freezing) accelerated the hardening some.

The Goodyears still have rubber left even after the tread is gone, there are witness holes near the outer edge to measure.

I'd say 10k miles to be certain, some time ago I had tires with almost 15k miles, went over a MINISCULE puddle while taking a u-turn at around 25, spun the car, got into the median and almost crash a post that would certainly have totaled the car.

10K miles is about the ceiling for mixed street/track driving. That’s when I had to swap them out! Probably should have done it a little earlier actually. JM

How do you like the ECS 02’s? Just ordered a set. Been through probobly 5 sets of super car 3’s in the past 65k miles. My quarters are destroyed.

Pretty sure my wife got about 10/11k out of the rears. Fronts are a little under 50% tread. Zero track but she does like to hammer it when the light goes green.

Good tires, throw less crap at the quarters, quieter ride, last much longer. It did take a little time for the tires to tighten up, initially they felt a little vague during cornering compared to the Goodyears, but they seemed to get better. Grip is good, just less precise.
Less tram lining and rain isn't life threatening.

I've been on the DWS's for about 8k miles, these are a little looser but grip surprisingly good for an all season.

The ECS02's I considered those but I didn't like the previous ECS that I ran on the 1LE so I stuck with the SC3 that I knew I was happy with and they were hundreds less than the ECS02.
