Tread Life with the Stock 19" Bridgestone's?

For those of you that have had your coupes for the past 4-5 months, how are the stock 19's holding up? I just realized that the treadwear on these tires are 160! (this means the rubber is uber soft, hince the quite ride but will significantly lessen tire life) I am guessing I will get at most 8,000-10,000 miles if I am lucky. I think I barely got 15,000 out of the Michelins and they had a treadwear of over 250.

I don't understand how some of you guys go through your tires so quick... My buddy has an 07 Z with the Potenza's and he has 17k miles, just the rears are ready to get replaced, and he's dragged it A LOT... My wife's 07 Sedan has the potenza's (i believe) and we have 19k miles, tires still have LOTS of life left in em...

These might be a different tire than what is on the sedan. It is hard to get that kind of mileage out of such a soft tire.
