Is 500 miles on a set of tires a lot?

No. Many new tire models and brands are supposed to last 80,000 miles. The lighter the car the longer an 80,000 mile tire will last.

No. You can drive 500 miles in a day

500 miles on a race car might be a lot, but that's driving to the limit and that's much harder on tires.

it depends on how hard of miles was put on the tires ! usually 500 miles are not very many miles but if someone used them rough then i don,t thing i would want them !

Not unless you're driving in a race or thinking of returning the tires.

Not if it is aligned properly. I have seen a poorly aligned semi tire cup badly at less than 500.

Nope, and dont listen to all the crap answers like "if the car is light it causes less wear" - - - absolute garbage.

Depends on a multitude of things ranging from driving style, type of driving (urban or motorway), wheel alignment, tyre pressures, load in the car, and believe it or not what you use to inflate them (I have nitrogen in mine - causes less wear due to condensation and heating the rubber)

Best advice - - - get decent tyres, drive sensibly, check pressures regularly and they should last over 20000miles

Yes it is alot. Tires should be replaced after five trips to the mall.

Not at all. I think the minimum most tires are designed for is 30,000.

no, at least 10000 miles from experience

Hardly broken in

No, just the opposite; it's hardly any distance at all.

No. Not even 5000.

Are you just driving on inner tubes?

It is on a temporary spare.

Yea, they will be nearly ready to replace by now........NOT!
