I had 3 month old Yokey-cokey's on my M3 when I bought and they lasted about six weeks. I was probably driving rather irresponsibly, I then changed to Good Year Eagle F1's which lasted about a year. When I went to get them replaced, there had been such a significant increase in the price of the replacements, I enquired about Conti's which turned out to be similarly pricey so instead went for Kumho instead.
I worked out that I don't drive the car as hard or as often as I used to, so I took some less expensive tyres which have lasted forever. They'll need replacing later this year, because there's the start of a kerbed tear...
