I installed this 180/55ZR17 Michelin Road 5 on my BMW RT about one year ago. Today it has gone 15,111 miles and still has 2/32" of the original 8/32" tread depth. This bike goes through front Road 5 tires faster than the rears but due to trips and such I've had to replace 3 fronts before they got to the wear bars so I don't really know how long a front will go. I replaced fronts between 10,000 and 11,500 miles but they could have gone maybe 1,500 to 2,000 more. I bought this tire with a $60 rebate on a set and with free mounting at Cycle Gear. Non GT on 600ish lb 100 rear wheel hp bike. I'm not exactly a sedate rider.
