My SHO originally came with Michelin MXM4 or something like that.  Was a good tire, but not great.  Before close to be worn out started making lots of road noise.  Purchased F1's as the price was unbeatable.  Have been a better tire than the OE Michelins.  Have 30K+ miles on them and probably have another 5-10K.  That said I've decided to try the Cooper Zeon RS3.

On the Michelin AS3's.  I have those on my GT500.  I get phenominal traction, 1.8 60fts.  I would highly recommend those for performance use.

I have about 32K on them, and they're at 5/32".  So I'd guestimate another 5-10K.  I do mainly interstate travels.  I got 50K out of the Michelins and they could've gone further but you could tell the ride quality was beginning to suffer.
