I don't keep count but for the few miles driven, right up there with you. Have lost 4 or so porsche tires in about 19k miles to various damage. Just bought a 19" /40 profile set. Once I aired them up, one tire showed a bubble that the seller didn't disclose or know about. It was otherwise a good deal so I'm not going to raise a stink. I took my 20's off, and one had a screw almost all the way through but it might be holding air. I removed it, still see the hole in the tread.

And by the way, 19" goodyear f1's drive much better than 20" pirelli p zero's out in real NJ.
