Expected tire life - 2002SE

What can I expect for tire life on the stock tires on 2002 SE? My driving is mostly suburban and I usually drive not to the limit.

I'd say 35K + miles.

My 2k SE has the Toyos with a tread wear rating of 250 I believe. A tire shop said if I get 35K out of them that would be max.
Basically, pretty cheap tires.

I have 8k on my 2001 se/ae with stock potenzas. i just had them rotated not long ago and instead of rotating them across and back, they just put the rear up front and put the front in the back. the difference in tread was amazing. id say i still have life left on the ones on the rear now, but im sure they wont make it past 20k even they will spend the next 7500 just being pulled around.

RE92's

I will be very 'lucky' to get 20K out of them. I say 'lucky' since although I don't want to needlessly spend money on tires, I am actually looking forward to geting rid of those pieces of crap.

I've got 33k on my RE92's. Rotated them front-to-back at 20k. Based on current condition of tires, I expect to get 50+k out of them.

I do mostly highway driving.
