Default Poll: Those with ContiSportContact2 tires, how many miles have you gotten out of them?

A fresh set of ContiSportContact2's came on my 25th Anniversary S4 wheels. The rubber has about 14K miles on them and at this time only about 5 1/2 to 6/32nds tread depth remaining. Needless to say I figure I have 2 - 3 months of usable wear left in these tires. Since the ContiSC2's came stock on many B6 and B7 S4's I am curious what you all who have run the have experienced as far as length of service for the tires.

TIA for sharing your experience.

Default I got 14k out of my first set until they were totally done.

I think 10k on the 2nd set, which someone else was able to run on for a little while after I got rid of them.

Default I got about 15K on those tires

I remember at my 15K service my service advisor showed me the wear and tried to sell me tires from the dealership.

Default I got about 150 miles, but...

I bought my Avant used with 15K miles, it still had the OEM Contis on it. 2 days after I bought it I picked up a nail and they were unrepairable, so I had a good excuse to replace them with Michelin PS2s. The Contis were junk, IMHO.
