can't really give u a solid answer, there are a lot of factors...like the way u drive, road conditions, how often u drive, etc etc etc

specs say UTQG is 320 treadwear, perhaps it'll last ~3x longer than ur average RE050A since it's rated 140

Well is there a range? 20-40K? Something like that?

Mine lasted over 25k in the rear but the last 10k was dreadful. Loud and hard.

An average would be about 20,000 miles on the Kumho SPT.

Tread wear ratings aren't comparable between different companies unfortunately.

How does this tire compare in noise and ride quality versus the Michelin's and Pirelli's or even factory tires? I can read the TR website, just wondering from our community here from those that have used them.

I have 19" staggered on my summer wheels and I would say they are ok. There are better tires in the same price range (hankook) that I would rather buy. But I think the next time I need tires. I will try the cont dw or dws.

Its going to be tough to say how mileage you'll be getting because it will all depend on the driving style you have, alignement of your car, and the roads you'll be driving on. I think a good estimate would probably be around the 25k range for a normal commuter.
