We know of customers who have gotten as much as 14,000+ miles on them, no track days and reasonable street driving.

Look at it this way, how many miles do you drive the Cobra per year? Divide the Avon cost by six so long as you are 2000 per year. Figure that as your annual cost of tires. I would not keep them on more than six years due to aging and durometer hardness increase due to age and ozone. So if you drive more than 2000 miles per year adjust the calculation. Regardless, you come up with a few hundred dollars per year for the best available street LEGAL tires and the performance and safety they bring to the party. Your annual cost will be in the $300-400 range, a figure that you can budget. If you drive a high performance car you need high performance tires. That simple.
