Expected Mileage for Dunlop 18 inch runflats with JCW

Hey guys

What is your experience with Dunlop SP9000 Runflats on 18" JCW alloys with JCW suspension.

I have 17K miles and I have worn through the top edge of the inner sidewall on right hand tire and almost through on the left. My driving style is not outrageous, heck, I'm mostly in Los Angeles traffic!

I am told this is on the high end of dealer expectations with this particular setup.

I hear tell of drivers with 30K plus.

I'd appreciate your feedback on this.

Many thanks

Not sure about the Dunlops. I have the perelli all season runflats, and they are about toast. I have just over 7k miles on them. I hear that perellis have a really soft rubber, and dunlops are quite a bit harder. 17k-20k seems to be the average.
