Default Run Flat mileage record ?

I just hit 30,000 miles on my stock Goodyear run flats. They are not bald yet but getting pretty LOUD. I guess I better start searching the threads for tire ideas. Any good news on the horizon? Does Goodyear make the new C6 runflats in C5 sizes?

Whatever...14,751 miles mine were done! Well, the rear ones. The front had maybe 5k left but I dumped them all for FS's.

My rear ones were done at less than 15K miles - and that was without any really hard driving. Sounds like your's has worn very well.
