Conti 5p longevity

[Celestion]

I like oversteer, but damn that was quick. It looks like my Conties are going to last about 15-16k miles - no track days, just lots of city traffic. Is this normal for these tires? How long did these tires last for you?

Yes, that's normal.

I will be lucky to get 15k out of my MPSS.

Man I'd take that any day. How long did you expect a high performance summer tire to last? My rear Mich pilot ss tires lasted about 9-10k. I drive pretty conservatively too. When I went in to put my summer set up on yesterday they told me rears had only 2 mm and could use replacement. Very disappointed in the wear longevity of the Michelins , as I have been in the past .

Does anyone know the tread depth of MPSS when new? Wonder if they rushed me into the new rears?

I drive fairly conservatively, but do enjoy spirited drives through the Hill Country and fast takeoffs. I currently have 16K on my 5P's, with good tread left. Really have little to complain about, they do well in wet and dry. Doesn't get very cold here, so.... However, I will probably try the PS4S when these need to be replaced.
