Good Tires for 18x8 wheels

I was wondering how many miles everone is getting from their low pro tires(235/40/18 245/40/18) I know this depends on treadwear rating, driving habits etc. The tires I'm running now are Kumho Supra Ecsta 712(treadwear 280) this is my first set & I will be lucky to get 20,000miles after they're gone.I'm planning on getting Falkens next that have a treadwear warranty of 30,000 miles(think the treadwear is 360 & I forgot the model of the tire) I'm looking for good treadwear along w/good preformance. Also how much did yours cost per tire?

Didn't try, had no idea of what to search under. I just wanted feedback vs. having to read a gripload of posts to find what I'm looking for.

man I'm glad I live in Florida...... I think all-season tires are crap.... I know people need them.... like my mom ..... I only buy performance summer tires.... I'm lucky to get 10 to 15k out of any tire..... since you can guess how I drive .... and you can tell I can't stand the performance given up for all-season traction and long life..... besides when it comes to those 4 little patches of rubber connecting me to the road.... I go for max traction..... and I really don't mind replacing tires every year
