IT should be possible to get that amount, I got new fronts per the proration at 16k, put those on the rears and wore the old rears (which had 99% left at 16 k - the rears hardly wear at all in this car, still had nubs on the tire at 16k) down to within the wear bar at 25 (in their defense, I was doing some VERY spirited driving cross country and in hill country with a laden car). I'm currently at 33 with 50% left on the fronts, rears to within a mil of their life but with enough tread depth -so that should take me to about 25 K averaged per set of four with only one rotation. Fantastic tire with great traction wet or dry, no noise or vibes here, only the longevity issue. But it's a tradeoff you know! At least we're not in the Acura NSX tire consumption range.
