Tires
I just sold my 71 coupe and I'm thinking of buying a 2001 C-5 Convertible. It has 26k on it and I was wondering what do you guys get on average for miles out of a set of tires?

The mileage you get will vary considerably depending on your driving habits and the way you maintain the tires (pressure, alignment, balance, etc.). I got 15K miles out of my rear OEM runflats while the fronts still had 75% of the tread left - and that was without hard driving. Others here have reported in excess of 30K miles on their tires.
