I would love to know how you get that mileage from a front.

All the tires listed had the front and rear changed at the same time.  The fronts were generally the tires that indicated it was change time.  We all ride differently so riding style, road surfaces we ride on, pressures we use, etc will impact the mileage we get.  On the RS I run 38 front 42 rear.  On my 2022 RT on the first set of Roadsmart IV I got 8200 miles using 38 front and 42 rear and the front was done.  Ran the next set at 40 psi front and 42 rear and got 11,000 miles.  I'm running the current set on the RS at 40 front and 42 rear to see if it makes a difference.  I also believe the warmer temps in Arizona vs Minnesota and the road surfaces are not a smooth in Arizona will affect my tire mileage.
