How long they last depend on the brand of tire, how you drive, there are too many factors for something to just answer this. But im sure will jump to answer how their set of 19s went 40k miles and they still got half the tread still left, bs.

Price is fully depedant again brand and model of tire, you want pure performance? longer lasting? 19s can range from $110 to about $400 a tire.

But on a general note, if you drive normal, most standard tires (not straight pure performance) will go at least 25k miles, if not more.

I have Nitto 555's in 245/35 . I got them for about 180 a piece. I have logged about 30 k miles on them so far, and that includes a lot of racing and burnouts. I know I can get at least another 15k miles out of them.

If you check any tire manufacturer's web page or even go old school and pick up a phone and call them, they should have a rating for all models they produce. Michelin is really detailed in that respect per www.michelin.com

Nitto 555's in 235/35....here too. Showing hardly any signs of wear, but i have never done a burnout or turned them over. They costs about 180 a tire. I am sure I can get about another 2 summers out of these easy. I take them off during winter/fall.

Gooey - was this question reflected my way or you just curious about other 19s?

Toyo Proxes FZ4s will be dead at 20,000 miles. They suck big time.
