I know a few, like Barney, who have had 100,000kms out of a set

Haven't really paid attention. I think the last set went 50 to 55,000km. They are an MT, I wouldn't expect anything more.
I may have written an installed mileage in one of my work diaries, might have a look.

No way on Gods green earth would I get anything like 100,000km.

Bear in mind that where I lived the roads were dirt (most of the topping used is crushed shale) and the bitumen crap. Moved into the village now, only 1km of dirt ! so tyre life should improve significantly
SWMBO was getting 90-95,000km out of her AT's on the Patrol, which was damned impressive considering the roads. (on our second set now) We just sneaked in 80,000km on Cooper ST's, and the OE fitted Bridgestone's lasted 50,000km, with most around here were only getting 40-45,000km.

Yeah thats what i thought, pitty i don't need em just yet. Will see if i can get a credit on the fitting
