Ive recently bought an Exige after owning an Elise for 2 years. The dealer put a full new set of Yokos on the vehicle for me. How many miles on average should I expect to get out of them? I drive it about 20 miles every day to work but its always in traffic. So it doesnt get abused.
6000 front 3000 rear I would say.
I get about 2,500mi…
Whats a good longer lasting alternative?
I would expect to double the mileage that MrD06 has suggested in sensible road use.
if n/a about 6k on the rears 12k on the front
if S about 5k on the rears unknown on the front
from (limited) experience
12,000 miles on A048
If you get that out of an Exige I would say you have brought the wrong car ;-p
on the front, perfectly reasonable
Just about to put the 4th set on the rear at 12,000 miles.
Second set of fronts still have another 2,000 miles to go.
I get about 2,500mi…
How’s the canyon’s in sunny CA…
Got 5K miles out of rears, fronts look like they’ll last another 5K miles. There wasn’t any track day use in that either.
at the risk of sounding like a boring old fart…
i get 9000 mls out of rears…
fronts have done 24,000 and still loads of tread left…
but i do a lot of motorway driving and have never tracked it
I get about 2,500mi…

Just right for wearing out 048’s. …so much better than seeing the same 12 corners all day…when are ya commin back out ?
The mileage some of you are getting is quite amazing. My last set of rears lasted under 1000 miles. (track + commuting to track) I have had most of the rear toe in dialed out and the wear rate is better, but I will never see more than 2K for rears and 3K for fronts.
6,800 on the rears down to the wear markers, including one Walshy day, fronts still going strong
